1. Something smart with C++ code BILL BOARD 2016 SMARTGUYS CONFERENCE – PALO ALTO (WHERE ELSE?)
2. Situation before I was hired 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 Speed department1
3. TODO: Smart citations  Moore’s Law  Einstein quote found on facebook  Gandhi sentence  FFS: DO IT IN ITALIC!!
4. Code before my work
5. A new approach  GOTOS!
6. Highly Templated out-of-context snippet time  This code is complex, makes you feel ignorant and daunted at first. That’s how I convince my audience I’m smarter than them. They shall never know that I failed to compile it 16 times and had to resort to stackoverflow with an anonymous account to make it work.
7. So here’s how we did it  Dynamic Covariance implementation  Deferred autosync barrier  Octane-powered legacy rearm  More buzzwords here All this stuff is pretty straightforward to me!!!
8. With me in the team: always big wins 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 overall speed overall speed 230X!!
9. Now it’s terminal time!! I’m a terminal guy. I was born in the terminal. I own the terminal. The only thing I could not find is a girlfriend via the unix terminal. Working on it though. Before $ ./clang++ -std=c++14 -O3 -Wall -pedantic -pthread main.cpp && ./a.out bash: line 7: 29430 Segmentation fault (core dumped) ./a.out NOW! $ ./clang++ -std=c++14 -O3 -Wall -pedantic -pthread main.cpp && ./a.out bash: line 7: 29430 Segmentation fault (core dumped) ./a.out Execution time ~ 23ms Execution time ~ 8ms NOW CRASHES 2.8X FASTER!
10. I can even do math in latex!  = 2
11. References (note: these people have just paved my way, they’re obviously less bright than me, I’m citing them anyway since I’m also a humble person)  Donald Knuth, Bjarne Stroustrup, Einstein, Dijkstra, any other computer scientist from A.D. 14 till today  Some other university guy (not even worth writing his name here)
12. Final smart slide std::cout << «The end»; Questions? (c’mon make me feel admired) You can also like my smartness on twitter, linkedin, Github or pretty much wherever you like.
