- steveklabnik 10y agoNot your parent, but the third paragraph covers this, starting with "Although I can ostensibly write C and C++".
- sidlls 10y agoReading his comment, his concern isn't with c++ as a language, it's with the tooling and development practices around it. He suggests that because of the generally project specific nature of the tooling and development idioms, generally a higher bar of experience is required to contribute. I can't argue with him there, and I'm about as much of a C and C++ fan as it's possible to be.
- dman 10y agoI fully agree with you here - neither C/C++ are a gateway to salvation. http://www.redox-os.org/news/rust-is-softwares-salvation-17/ http://www.redox-os.org/news/rust-is-softwares-salvation-17/
- sidlls 10y agoThat is far from what I meant, and the suggestion that Rust is "salvation" is the stuff of infantile delusion. I'm a big fan of Rust, too, but it isn't going to be the "salvation".
- madgar 10y agoI would characterize about 1/3 of HN posts as infantile delusion. You just learn to tune it out and get to the adult posts more quickly. There are browser extensions to help with this, too.
