Why not C++?
Josiah Howard
Thomas Martinez
Why isn't E, D, or F faster than C?
Juan Clark
Because C runs everything :c

I started learning it today, I'm gonna regret it, right?

I don't. It's my favorite language.

C++ is the most POWERFUL language of all time

I don't. C++ is awesome. It took about two years for me to become a proficient C++ programmer. Now I make $155k per year writing it.
Samuel Martin
I feel so loved

kore.io C web server usable with C++ and Python. has hookups to pgsql and other shit. look it up.

Well for one move & copy constructors are a total mess. Also all sorts of unexpected undefined behaviors that cause hard to track bugs. Line for line C++ software has more bugs and security holes than any other language by far.

Well try maintaining a 40 fucking year old open programming language anyone can add their shit code too
Nicholas Bennett
Yes, you will use it for a couple of years until you realise 50% of all the code you write is boilerplate for useless, "pretty" interfaces. Then you will switch to C or start writing C-like C++.
Luke Allen
>anyone can add their shit code too
That's the problem. Last year at CPP con there was a proposal to add basic audio capabilities to the STL. There has also been one for primitive graphics and window creation. You can fucking bet they will go through at one point or another.
Tyler Bailey
You're a son of a bitch
you know that?
Aiden Taylor
Then you will switch to Java. You will be able to write the same programs in 1/3 the time with 80% of the performance and fewer bugs.

Because James Gosling is a asshole

I ain't clicking that shit nigga
Anthony Diaz
lmao is this real?
Daniel Butler
brainlet here
what types of applications is C++ suitable for vs. C? I gather that C++ is not flatly superior to C and that C is still the correct choice for many situations.

missed opportunity, user
Brayden Nguyen
no, it's fake interview
Levi Scott
Because we're brainlets and incapable of anything beyond Lisp fizzbuzz.

The main problem with C++ is its complexity. Nearly anyone can understand well written C code, but what most people believe constitutes well written C++ code changes with every new standard. C++ has a lot of confusing unexpected behavior.
You can do pretty much everything C can do in C++, but eventually some fucking idiot is going to make one tiny mistake and ruin everything.

Well, better late than never.
Aaron Cruz
here are some languages better than C++ from the top of my head
C
Erlang
R
Rust
Java
Python
Perl
Scheme
Lisp
Common Lisp
Haskell
Fortran
Ada
Smalltalk
Scala
Vala
Ruby
Crystal
Elixir
Clojure
D
Assembly
Lua
that's why

It was made with the wrong approach of metaprogramming and backward compatibility in mind. The latter has been fixed lately, now that it is too late.
