Lightning Talk: Words Of Power
summary
Argues that creating domain-specific meaning happens both in code and in team habits: at the language level define types with class and use templates to compose words of power, and future C++ features like a proposed dollar cast hint at deeper generative programming; at the human level concrete practices matter now — thank people, give specific praise, offer help in code reviews rather than blunt critiques — and those social "words" change behavior as effectively as new syntax.
