It’s easy to pick on C++, but you can’t have backward compatibility and foreword progress and also not have features that are considered out-of-date.

- astrange 5y agoWell that's fine, but it would be nice to have more official guidance, like editions/profiles/versions that turn things off as well as on. There are some standards, but mostly you just get self-proclaimed C++ experts telling you you suck if you write a `new` statement and don't use whatever kind of smart pointer is the right one now.
