I hate java with a passion, C# was fun (but at that time only available through the .Net nightmare) and I grew up with (Turbo ;-)) Pascal and C
So, I’m feeling rather comfortable and at home with C++
I’d like to do a bigger project in Rust once at least, but with my current project already the compile times are between 20/25 to 45mins (depends, if you have the build server available or if you need to make up with the IPC).
so, I guess, those iterations would become even longer with Rust
But I’m also having the advantage, that my applications are running very, very isolated. So I don’t really need to take care about exposure and attacks.
Still… Finding a memory leak or some shared memory fuck up is everything but fun…
Especially as most of the logic runs in kernel space and debugging possibilities are mostly reduced to traces/log files
Still, I love it
Maybe it’s because of the thrill ;-)
I’m not sure, if it was just my young age/experience with Debian, but now with Arch I could always save a system. With apt I sometimes preferred a complete re-install.
I actually really like Arch(& Arch based systems).
If that is the public opinion with C++ and Arch, I’ll need to re-evaluate my masochistic tendencies, it seems
Most C++ devs blame themselves and not the language though. So it still gets used a lot.
And I fucking love it

Sounds like the same stockholm syndrome I have for Arch.
Arch is great in my opinion

As an oldtimer myself you portray it perfectly!
Cheers from another java loather 😁
Hehe, cheers ;-)
