Presumably "entire career" means some amount of exposure to other things. In my 21 years coding professionally, I will settle on C++ or Ruby for most problems depending on context. Ruby for quick, dirty, and "now!", while I use C++ for Long lasting, performance, strongly typed, and compatible things. Those aren't perfect categories and there are reasons to pick other tools, but Choosing C++ after a long career does mean something more than "I am comfortable with this".

    I did, it was yet another “I use it because I always use it” post, but longer. Absolutely 0 value. But if you’re going to behave like a child I’ll skip the rest. Enjoy!
