The keynotes at CppCon 2026 in Aurora, Colorado, have been nothing short of spectacular, and today we’re excited to highlight the keynote from Google researcher and YouTube creator, Laurie Kirk!
Laurie’s talk, The Address is Not The Place: Object Residency in C++26, explored using reflection and annotations to extend C++ vocabulary for developer-driven memory tiering and smart data grouping. For more details on the talk, you can visit the original keynote announcement.
