Same. I really miss it. Not terribly long ago we had an app that has a client and server, both in c++. UI, API, everything was c++. It really felt like the universal language had arrived. I won't pretend everything was perfect as it wasn't, but work was fun and the high caliber of people who could work in that stack was a joy to work with. I've never had a more exciting lunch than when we got distcc running on our blades so we could execute builds way faster. It was also a joy not being the only Linux zealot :-D
