C++26: Erroneous Behaviour
The interpretation is probably up for some debate especially since meeting details are not public, but some relevant links are:
- The P3390R0 Safe C++ proposal and the related vote in the 2024-11 Wrocław meeting: https://github.com/cplusplus/papers/issues/2045
- The adoption of the paper P3466 R1 (Re)affirm design principles for future C++ evolution at the same meeting, which contains language which can be interpreted as preemptively foreclosing a Safe C++-style approach: https://github.com/cplusplus/papers/issues/2121

A 20 year old bug in GTA San Andreas surfaced in Windows 11 24H2
And yet, there is a good chance that C++ will start doing exactly this [1]. Because [2]:
> The performance impact is negligible (less that 0.5% regression) to slightly positive (that is, some code gets faster by up to 1%). The code size impact is negligible (smaller than 0.5%). Compile-time regressions are negligible. Were overheads to matter for particular coding patterns, compilers would be able to obviate most of them.
> The only significant performance/code regressions are when code has very large automatic storage duration objects. We provide an attribute to opt-out of zero-initialization of objects of automatic storage duration. We then expect that programmer can audit their code for this attribute, and ensure that the unsafe subset of C++ is used in a safe manner.
> This change was not possible 30 years ago because optimizations simply were not as good as they are today, and the costs were too high. The costs are now negligible.

Malloc broke Serenity's JPGLoader, or: how to win the lottery
For whatever its worth, if we wait long enough C++ will include the equivalent of `malloc_good_size`. https://github.com/cplusplus/papers/issues/18

Qt and C++ Trivial Relocation (Part 1)
It is slowly making its way through the standards committee. https://github.com/cplusplus/papers/issues/43
The author has a fork of clang and gcc with some pretty impressive speedups, so I’m hopeful! https://lists.isocpp.org/sg14/2024/04/1127.php

Learn Modern C++
What's fun is, because everything is decided in papers, we can find out why! https://github.com/cplusplus/papers/issues/884
Accepted paper here: https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2022/p20...
> The proposed std::print function improves usability, avoids allocating a temporary std::string object and calling operator<< which performs formatted I/O on text that is already formatted. The number of function calls is reduced to one which, together with std::vformat-like type erasure, results in much smaller binary code (see § 13 Binary code).
Additionally,
> Another problem is formatting of Unicode text:
> std::cout << "Привет, κόσμος!";
> If the source and execution encoding is UTF-8 this will produce the expected output on most GNU/Linux and macOS systems. Unfortunately on Windows it is almost guaranteed to produce mojibake despite the fact that the system is fully capable of printing Unicode

C++ Papercuts
Bringing editions to C++ failed, and I am not aware of anyone trying to tackle the issues https://github.com/cplusplus/papers/issues/631
(I could be wrong though! I follow the committee more than you may guess, but not as much as to think I know everything about what's going on.)
