And yet you make such statements ;-)
I often see on HN these sorts of comments whenever C++ is brought up and it really needs to stop. It is wrong, adds no value to the discussion and does a grave injustice to the programming community.
We should be encouraging programmers to learn C/C++ since just knowing those two languages enables one to program MCU/embedded/desktop/server machines across all layers of software from apps/scientific software/OS/system software/bare-metal in the real-world. One can imagine the job opportunities for a programmer with such a skillset as market needs change. With both Hardware and Software evolving so rapidly nowadays, C/C++ are the one constant interface language in the industry.
- mohamedkoubaa 2mo agoI would encourage programmers to learn c++ because it's important, but I'll never lie about what it's like to actually use it
