C++ hatred

Name: Anonymous 2012-01-08 12:26

Why is C++ hated so much here in /prog/? Many good software are written in C++.

I'm aware that there are some problems in the language and it is considered "hard" to master it, but why do so many people hate it? What harm has it done?

Software can be written much quicker when using some scripting languages like Python. Software can be writte slightly quicker when using some managed language like Java. But when using those languages, the resulting program will require more resources to run. So there is place for C++.

For example, I bet the web browser of 99% people browsing /prog/ is written in C++. It's not perfect language, but it is the best language for complex program with relatively small CPU and RAM requirements.

So Kodak modus operandi,
- make a false statement
- try to lie about it later
- when shown evidence that he's lying try to write some random bullshit strawman arguments
- get proven wrong
- ad-hominem attacks on the people who proved him wrong
- get faced with mathematical evidence that he's wrong
- ignore it
- claim that he's superior because he works at some shitty company who hires programmers without mathematical ability
- write some more random bullshit about undefined mathematics and pretend it's correct
- write some unrelated bullshit
- get told
And most importantly of all
- never admit to any mistake ever
