- vikinghckr 6y agoBecause: a) Modern C++ is amazing. b) The highest paying software jobs require C++.
- imafish 6y agoa) it really isn't. b) yes, COBOL developers are also highly paid. does not make the language amazing.
- vikinghckr 6y agoa) It really is. b) I didn't say point (a) is why modern C++ is amazing. But it is one of the motivations for learning modern C++.
- mister_hn 6y agoBecause the alternatives aren't better
- pjmlp 6y agoBecause right now there is no better companion for my Java/.NET/Node tooling and I am not touching C unless obliged to do so. When NVidia, Microsoft, Oracle, Apple and Google put other native languages on their toolbox I will consider them for production code.
