There are many applications that either aren't typically IO bound, or where the IO (eg. gpu<->memory) is fast enough that you'll likely need C++ to maximise performance.
Writing software that pushes bleeding edge hardware is fun, which is why many people still want to learn C++.
- angersock 11y agoOh, sure, but the vast vast vast majority of applications--especially that people are hiring for--aren't what you're referring to.
- MrScruff 11y agoStatistically I've no doubt you're right. However there are still a bunch of jobs where performance matters. If I left my job and industry, I'm fairly certain I could find another employer that found value in having a specific piece of code run as fast as possible.
