I would say C, most things. I will admit it isn't without flaws. Python comes in second but I really only enjoy it for small projects and automation. I have been meaning to pick up C++ though.
Jackson Murphy
Are you a masochist?
Ian Flores
Haskell is so nice
Landon Miller
What's wrong with C++?
Jayden Campbell
Unironical. Also, I'm a straight white cis male, tho somewhat lefty.
Thomas Thompson
c++
if you gotta ask this you dont know much about c++
Nathan Adams
What a shitty answer, I bet you have no real argument. C++ is very complex, but you can really write it like you want.
Ryan Nguyen
In terms of what?
Getting things done: JavaScript.
Getting bigger things done: TypeScript.
Favourite language based on syntax: Ruby, Python, Nim
Standard library: C#, Java
Documentation, users, packages: JavaScript
GUIs: JavaScript
For 70% less bugs: Any language without manual memory management
Angel Garcia
Even Scott Meyers gave up on it
Ryan Edwards
you have to deal with inconsistencies across OSes, no standardized threading, linker errors, and a bunch of other stupid things. And if you aren't using it for speed why are you even using it.
Levi Carter
Manual memory management is pointless unless you're writing system software.
Cameron Adams
I like doing stuff in Typescript (don't bully), C#, Python and go
Jackson Sanchez
>no standardized threading
is there something wrong with std::thread?
Jace Harris
c# .net
Levi Rodriguez
>you can really write it however you want
That's a problem, not and advantage.

DIY: C

What kind of stuff you guys make in C++ besides video games?
Gavin Scott

Liam Walker
Modern sepples is bretty based

C++ is often used in software which has mixed performance and business logic concerns.
Games programmers is probably one of the worst examples of C++ programmers around because broadly speaking they're very vocal against the language and its developments. It seems almost every time someone in the C++ community says something mildly questionable about C++ development Game programmers come in droves to complain wide and far.

You might notice how this guy is effectively arguing for C-like code or just straight C code.
Just one example. Just a few weeks after this someone made a post about how C++ programmers shouldn't be debuggers and the same explosion happened.
See pic for a more accurate idea of who actually uses C++.
Finance is mostly HFT. They also have some reservations against C++ but that depends on where the code is.
