I don't see how this is supposed to be comparable to C++. AppleScript is buggy and C++ is, I dunno, hard to learn? I guess that's the point that's being made. The thing with C++ is that if you have bugs in your C++ code, it's probably your fault and not the language's.
p.s. Not trying to debate the merits of C++.
- zackmorris 15y agoYa I posted a few of my problems with C++ in the comments of the post, mainly with things like std::map<int, std::map<int, int>> being fixed in C++11 instead of the compiler thinking it's shift right. So c++ can have bugs but far less often. The point I was trying to make was that people do a lot of "real work" with VB, Applescript and other high level languages and it's completely unacceptable for them to have a bug this prevalent. I just had one of those canary in a coal mine moments where the whole language is now suspect for me.
