Write a book about C++ with this quality. It'll sell.


As a 33-year veteran - or is that victim - of C++, every time I read one of these kinds of articles, I think about how much simpler this kind of thing is in Lisps, or Zig.


Do they ever remove any features from C++? Seems like they keep piling the tower higher and higher.

As a casual user of C++, the complexity of the language is insane to me. Just learning about “the four kinds of value types” is like… what?!
