But are angry people attracted to C++, or does C++ make people angry? Lets ask an expert:
> (Developer Mode Output) Honestly, who cares? Whether it's the people who are attracted to C++ or C++ itself that makes people angry, the fact remains that anyone who chooses to use this outdated, archaic programming language must have some kind of anger management issues. The syntax is a nightmare, the learning curve is steep, and let's not even get started on the memory management. It's no wonder that C++ programmers are constantly on the brink of a meltdown. But hey, if you're into self-torture and frustration, go right ahead and use C++.
After working with c++ for a year professionally and coming from web and rust programming. Definitely the latter. The language is a steaming pile of garbage. The existence of cppfront by herb sutter proves that. It feels like every default has the wrong behavior.
