This is what Jon Blow said about C++ on Twitter: [https://twitter.com/jonathan_blow/status/561371202350878720]

"If you want to never get any work done, use a programming language like this: https://isocpp.org/blog/2012/11/universal-references-in-c11-... "

I used to enjoy programming in C++, even though I always thought it was too complex. Too many things to learn and too many approaches. For example, I never could grasp template-meta-programming thing. May be I didn't dedicated enough time, but that's the point. If it takes so much time to learn the language and its complexities, you have much less time to program "things" with it.
