I did the same, I thought C++ was heading for obsolescence. Now a master of Java, Javascript and can write great full stack apps. Meanwhile HFT C++ jobs are paying double, I'm thinking of going back, even if the systems are boring.

been working on java jobs and easy code bases since I graduated 10 years ago, nothing had been really challenging and I'm not complaining. Would be interested in a job that pays more even do you think working on C++ jobs is more challenging or just boring?

  Depends on the job of course. Probably more technical problems and tuning. Often code is low level which is interesting if its your thing but not if you like business problems.
