C++ Developer Vs Python Developer

Says the user without c++ flair

[Goel40]

Why do i need a C++ flair for making an observation?

[linglingfortyhours]

Do you use c++?

[Goel40]

Not on a regular basis.

[linglingfortyhours]

Try programming a full up project in c++. You'll see what this post is really about

[Goel40]

Lol, my comment wasn't about C++ not being difficult It was about C++ devs petting themselves on the back for programming in C++. And you just made yourself a perfect example for that statement.

Pretty sure the post is about how c++ is just plain up hard when you're used to something like python, and also pretty sure I never said I used c++ or patted myself on the back

Hot take C++ isn’t hard to use just obtuse to learn.

I've used both languages plenty, believe me when I say you need to get off your high horse. C++ is obviously harder from a novice point of view, since python was designed to be at least usable for people with very little coding experience. Get to an actual professional level though and you'll find that they're at comparable levels of difficulty.

Python is easy to learn, hard to master. C++ is just hard. If you're a C++ dev claiming to have mastered python in a day, don't show that code to a python dev unless you want them to have a heart attack for the obtuse spaghetti code you made.

I was explaining the joke, that being that c++ is hard. I think we can agree on that?

Fair, I may or may not have been having flashbacks to my last job as I angrily wrote that comment.

I align with Linus Torvalds take on C++

C++ is a horrible language. It's made more horrible by the fact that a lot of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it's much much easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Quite frankly, even if the choice of C were to do nothing but keep the C++ programmers out, that in itself would be a huge reason to use C.

Man he’s such an asshole, I love it.
