C++ Ottawa: "Dangerous Optimizations and the Loss of Causality"

Why we picked it

In "Dangerous Optimizations and the Loss of Causality," Robert C. Seacord analyzes how C/C++ compilers utilize undefined behavior to execute aggressive, and sometimes unsafe, code optimizations. These optimizations can remove essential security checks, creating severe vulnerabilities by breaking traditional assumptions of program execution flow. Join us **in person** for an awesome session at C++ Ottawa! We're excited to host a **WG14 speaker** who will dive into some cool C++ stuff. Stay tuned for the exact topic—it’s going to be a great chance to learn, ask questions, and hang out with fellow C++ enthusiasts. Don’t miss out on this fun and informal meetup!
