<p>This month, Shea Newton will be presenting "Writing Software That's Safe Enough To Drive A Car!"</p>
<p> </p><p>Autonomous cars run on software, and most of the microcontrollers in today's cars are programmed using C. We have found that even the best code checking for C does not protect against system-crippling errors - the kind of errors that could endanger the lives of future drivers. C is simply not the right language for safety-critical software, but what about Rust?</p> <p>## Target audience</p> <p>I'd like to try and keep this talk relatively high level. Examples of self-corrupting code may resonate more with developers who have written C but ideally the talk will apply to anyone interested in Rust and curious about the state of self-driving car technology.</p> <p>------------------------------------------------------------------</p> <p>We may also have time for lightning talks and socializing as well.</p> <p>------------------------------------------------------------------</p> <p>As always, we'll be following the Rust Code of Conduct: <a href="https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/conduct.html" class="linkified">https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/conduct.html</a></p>
