C++ is a better C

C++, with discretion, is a better C, and I do not recommend coding large projects in straight C.
There you have it. The man is a rocket scientist, just try and prove him wrong.

C++ is only an abomination among hipsters and undergraduates who fail to understand it. Anyone who has been programming with C++ for several years or more knows its shortcomings, but also how to successfully utilize all of its strength.

Experienced C++ programmers chose to use C++, ship their code on time and budget, meet and exceed the performance requirements, get paid and then get laid.

You need to get over it.
