Tbf he’s not wrong about C++ 🤣
I’ll go back to reading “The Joy of C” that I found in a box now.

C is the way! If I am a sole dev, I love C. When it’s a team, C++ is my choice 🐶🐾🫡
I’m so sick of missing out on a proper dependency manager Fish!! 😭 WHY CANT VCPKG NOT BE SHIT!!!
Well, I guess we can leave with one deficiency. Dependency free programming is the way! 🐶🐾🤣💜
i miss the old days of GOPATH when you could distribute a whole complete Go source code as one... but there is vendoring, nothing stopping you from using that, also has no dependencies except for the Go installation itself
i've written code that bundles a whole dependency graph into a package and just needs to grab the compiler to run ... it's not hard to write compiler driving scripts in Go
I’ve read his opinion, and I don’t necessarily agree with it 100%. All powerful tools are the most dangerous and require careful design and approach. 🐶🐾🫡
Kinda came down to the same for me, but Linus has some point. I’ve seen some really clean C++, but the majority of it… it gives me nightmares.
Yes! Hence one needs to be careful how they apply a tool 🐶🐾🫡
indeed but there is no way to properly use stupid tools like objects, programs are active not passive things... the less imperative a language is the more easy it is to make overly abstract, inefficient code that takes the compiler forever to figure out
