Matt Godbolt

I’m a C++ developer who’s passionate about the seemingly opposite goals of good, readable code and high performance code. I love taking the lid off and looking underneath, be it the compiler, the operating system, or even the silicon that runs everything.

By day I write software for quantitative trading company Aquatic. By night I hack on hobby projects ranging from emulating old computers in your browser to compiler exploration tools.
