C++ is C done wrong. We must purge C++ from this world.

Who is with me?

Have you read your BS _{(Short for "Bjarne Stroustrup", this refers to "The C++ Programming Language")} today?

Pff... Op simply doesn't know how to program it, thus he gets one segfault every two lines of code.

Actually it's a good programming language, and has a lot of support.

Only half of this statement is correct but it's also the half that matters.

There is no need to purge it. It self-selects from the pool of the idiotic and desperate, with whom I have no desire to share a decent language since they are clearly incapable of finding one themselves.

This is how all abused programming languages begin their life.

Anyone can criticize the standard, but most people who criticize are too lazy to look for the alternatives

There are already good replacement languages for C++...
PL/I, Ada, Modula-2

BAWWWWW I'm not manly enough to handle the power of C++. Therefore C++ is not worth using at all. BAWWWWW

Totally got the point. 0/10 since it's not trolling, it's the truth.

Easy answer: only a True Man can be also a True Programmer. Also I heard web developers are Real Sissies of programming. What now?

There are 10 kinds of programmers: those who have studied C++ in depth, and those who think it's a good language.

There's an 11^th kind: Those who haven't studied it in depth but know it's not worth the trouble.

Those are both type 0. Any programmer who knows C++ is terrible has clearly studied deeply enough.

Has anyone here actually coded anything in Ada?

My undergraduate Algorithms and Data Structures class was taught in Ada. Early 1990s. Back then, the military was into Ada, so universities figured it might actually catch on.

The software industry writing reliable, correct programs? Hahaha... those ivory tower academics and their interpretation of the software industry's desire to do anything correctly.

Any programmer who knows his language/technology deeply enough hates it.

There's a difference between hating your job and knowing something is genuinely terrible.

C++ is to C what Cedega is to Wine. Cedega was created from Wine to make something that would be better for games, but it seems that its predecessor has caught up and no one cares about Cedega anymore.

caught up...youre refering to C99 right? *rolleyes*

hint: C99 is C with C++ features added

The difference is that at one point, Cedega was actually better than Wine.

speaking of which, is it actually feasible that Windows could be reverse engineered well enough that their will ever be a 100% functioning Windows emulator on Linux?

VirtualBox

Virtualbox is an x86 emultaor, so of course its possible to run any OS on it since x86 architecture is well known. Emulating an OS is much harder than emulating hardware.
