There are other c++ compilers you idiot. Take a step outside of your world and see whats out there.
Your response to templates is incorrect you twat. Templates will fundamentally increase the size of the binary, because the templated functions and classes will need to be duplicated in the binary for each use with distinct data types. Your recommendation helps keep down the sizes of object files, which is nice, but not what I was talking about, which was the final binary.
Where did anyone mention trying to link code compiled via different compilers?
Every language has a place where it falls short you dumbass. This is a consequence of trying to address a specific area. One can't hope to make a language that fits every application perfectly. This is why there is more than one language in existence. The fact that you don't understand this shows that you've never programmed anything outside of your domain.
Your post is written in language that screams your over inflated ego. I wouldn't care about it so much if I didn't have to sift through it to find out what you were trying to say. Please be more concise in the future.
