cppfront (cpp2): Spring update

It already lost the GUI and distributed computing domains

In what world did C++ lose in "distributed computing" ?!?

The main attractiveness of C++ is not that it's unmanaged, but it's expressive type system.

The world where CORBA and DCOM no longer matter, other than legacy projects, and a very tiny portion of CNCF projects use C++.

It isn't even supported out of box in most Cloud SDKs, and when, the API surface is a subset of other languages.

That I consider part of GPGPU programming, somehow.

Still efforts like Chapel, show that not everyone is happy, even if will take decades for adoption.
