I'm the author and I've been trying to respond to everyone but Hacker News won't let me comment fast enough. Thanks everyone for taking the time to read my article and respond! Your criticisms are greatly appreciated. This article came from having read a lot of posts online saying developers shouldn't learn C++ because Rust is killing it anyway. A lot of developers (new developers, especially) seem to take that statement to heart which I think is a mistake. I'm definitely not trying to take away from Rust because it's a great language (maybe even better than C++), but there's more to choosing a language than just which is better (unfortunately) and that's the point I was trying to get across.
