How to become a conference speaker
A reader of my book C++ Brain Teasers recently emailed me and asked: By the way, I’m curious how one gets to a point in their C++ journey / career when they’re able to give talks at these large conventions. Do you have any insights on this? I figured I'd reply in blog form, in case someone else is wondering the same.
