All these rants are a classic case of some sort of emotional investment that isn't about evidence. Your links and evidence either don't apply to what you're talking about or they are vague references to "find it yourself" in something large. First, you are now ignoring your own claims that "amortization is broken" when your own link just showed normal doubling and I asked what was supposed to be wrong. Your link before was about a trivial copying attribute not the doubling of a vector's size. There's a CppNow talk from 2018 or so in which Arthur demonstrates a 3x perf difference. A "3x perf difference" compared to what? Prove it and link a timestamp. This barely makes sense. It's a vague claim with vague evidence. It's WG21, the C++ Standards Committee. Now your evidence that "fixing this" (no specific of what 'this' means) is linking the entire 2020 iso C++ plan? This is one step removed from the classic "I'm not going to do your homework, google it yourself". I think the problem is on your end, C++ demands a very high price in terms of safety, ergonomics, learning curve - and to some people that means it ought to be really good. Otherwise why such a high cost? Those are the same people who figure if they paid $500 for a T-shirt that must mean it's a good T-shirt. Nah, it just means you're a sucker. This seems like some personal frustration. When I write C++ it's very simple and direct. Small classes, value semantics, vectors, hash maps and loops. Then your 'answer' is that nothing is good enough and nothing works. You say C++ is a bad choice for codecs, yet half the planet is using video codecs written in C++ all day every day. You ignore browsers and games being written in C++ too. You have no solutions, it's just that everything sucks but you can't be bothered to even write your own vector. This is just your frustrations wrapped in rants with some hand waving non evidence to act like it's based on something other than emotion.
