Don't remember the source and probably misquoting, but I like this truism: there's software that people complain about and software that nobody is using.

  The original quote is from Bjarne Stroustrup, the creator of C++. The quote also doesn't apply here. (You can't just use it to excuse any problem with software that you come across). The author of the article and the library in it just seems out of their depth in many ways.

      I don't think it's ironic, the quote directly addresses the many criticisms towards C++.
