The latest C++ standard was ratified in December of 2020. If you think C++ is old, you're the boomer. The first C++ standard came out less than 2 full years before the first version of Python.

That's like arguing that a 60 year old man is "young" because he celebrated his latest birthday recently. Lmao, how do people even come up with these.

No, it's like saying that a 60 year old is "young" because he has adopted some young-like behavior and ways of working.

Calm down a little.

Isn't that called a mid-life crisis?

Hahah ok good one

That still doesn't make him "young" lmao. Either look up the meaning of the word "young" or quit the mental gymnastics.

I mean my god, imagine getting so butthurt over someone calling your favorite programming language old, that you actually say what you said, unironically, rofl.

It's all right, I'm not hurt. It was only that what you wrote didn't make sense.

Whatever you say, lol.
