Such rant appears once every few months on HN, this one is one of the least convincing. Many problems he mentioned are not "Modern C++" problems, but problems with C++ from beginning, some of them already have reasonable solutions, for example ccache + distcc for speeding up compilation. The real problem with C++ is the standard committee, the design by committee approach for such a complex language is failing. If C++ is taken over by a company, it will be a much better language.
