- hellofunk 10y agoSome decent discussions there, I missed them before, thanks for pointing them out. Overall I disagree with some of the commenters who take one look at {{}} and cue the syntax bashing. I've found that many of the new syntactic conveniences in the language have brought a net positive to expressiveness and elegance.
- anuragsoni 10y agoDon't get me wrong. I agree that the new syntactic conveniences have improved the overall developer experience of using C++. I know how difficult it is to improve things in C++ while still maintaining backward compatibility with the huge history it has. C++11/14 was a step in the right direction and i'm looking forward to what will come with the new, more rapid release cycles they are trying to adopt.
