Every two weeks, or so, we sit down with guests from the C++ community to discuss the latest news and what they have been up to.

Mateusz Pusz joins Phil and new guest co-host, Anastasia Kazakova. Mateusz talks to us about his physical units (and quantities) library, mp-units, why v2 is a complete redesign compared to the previous version, and how incorporating a system of quantities is so central to this new design.
Frances Buontempo joins Phil and returning guest co-host, Matt Godbolt. Frances talks to us about her new book on modern C++ as well as her the topic of her previous book on machine learning. We discuss the differences between LLM-based AI and more statistical approaches, as well as where random numbers fit into all this and the limitations of their current support in C++.
Abbas Sabra joins Phil and Timur. Abbas talks to us about static analysis, the challenges - and benefits - of analysing C++ code, and a new feature from Sonar that can scan public repos with zero config.
Mark Gillard joins Timur and guest co-host Jason Turner. Mark talks to us about reflection, SIMD, and his library soagen, a structure-of-arrays generator for C++.
Bjarne Stroustrup joins Phil and Timur. Bjarne talks to us about safety in C++ through profiles, as well as modules and concepts - and looks ahead to what else is coming next.
Joshua Berne joins Phil and Timur. Joshua talks to us about the previous week's ISO C++ meeting in Varna, Bulgaria, then focuses on the current state of the contracts proposal that he has been central to, as well as a bit of its history.
Daniel Ruoso joins Phil and Timur. After covering a couple of blog posts and a new UI library, we welcome Daniel back to talk with us about modules, package and build systems and SG15, the tooling study group. We also revisit the Ecosystem International Standard.
Antony Peacock joins Timur and Phil. After rounding up the news, we chat with Antony about what it's like to work in finance as a C++ developer, the similarities and differences to games dev and how you can break in to a role in finance. We also discuss what it's like to work in tech as someone with dyslexia.
