I guess C++ hate is in fashion, but for me, I just don't see it. I've programmed in myriad languages, including the HN-beloved Lisp, and I think C++ is fine and stands up there with the best of them in terms of ability, syntax, etc. It has its annoying problems, of course, but so does any other language. Maybe if I tried some of the languages that get huge praise here, like Haskell, I would see the light and see what a horrible horrible language C++ is.
