Proof? I've seen _quite_ the opposite. Sure, these things (and Flash, still) are popular among small/indie devs, but I haven't heard about a single AAA title since ~1995 that didn't used C++.
There is an insane amount of big open source projects out there that use C++. Firefox, Chromium, KDE, .... the list is much longer. Making significant contributions to any of those would most likely be considered experience.
And there are tons of C++ jobs outside the game industry. Not for small-scale web stuff of course, but for client-side stuff, and really huge backends, C++ is still very popular.
- nemasu 13y agoNo proof really. My last job hunt ( Nov of last year ) just came up 100% not-C++, currently doing Java work. Same thing happened a few years ago...maybe I just lived in a lame city though.
- zura 13y agoSpeaking about remote C++ jobs - I sent an email to you more than two months ago, for the C++ dev position at Eyeo, which they still advertise on their jobs site. I sent again after a couple of weeks. No reply. Could you please confirm that this job is still active?
