It's not just the articles on his blog; yosefk is also the author of the C++ FQA Lite: http://yosefk.com/c++fqa/ http://yosefk.com/c++fqa/
He probably hates C++ more than anyone in the universe. (And probably knows more about it than anyone except veteran C++ implementers and committee members.)
- DanielBMarkham 17y agoYes I thought this author was a rerun -- I remember his FQA being posted here a year or so ago. The opposite of love is not hate; it's ambivalence. So he must really still carry a torch for the old girl.

- asmod 17y agoI think it's less a case of the complaining hobbyist and more a case of Stockholm Syndrome in a guy who debugs other people's C++ for a living because the people who write the code are smart enough not to learn how to debug it. See: http://www.yosefk.com/blog/the-cardinal-programming-jokes.html http://www.yosefk.com/blog/the-cardinal-programming-jokes.ht... wherein plumber jokes involving copious amounts of excrement are made.
