    I love C++ personally. Although I'm starting to favor C#, pretty much every reason why I preferred C++ to Java is present in C#, and more. But C++ will always hold a special position, it was the first language I really learned (I learned some VB.Net before that, but nothing more than basic math(s) operations in button click event handlers, changing label text, and reading textbox text).

      You are stupid. Go troll somewhere else.

                  Nah, not going to help or hurt your reputation.... Although I probably should because you are obviously not a grizzled old programmer like me. As you gain experience you realize that just like for a car mechanic, there is a tool for every job. C++ is great for some tasks, C# for others, java for still others, and python for others. That's why there are so many computer languages out there.... It all depends on what you are trying to do. If you are shoehorning a task into a language because you don't like or understand another one, then you are doing yourself and your users a disservice. Here is one task that C++ really excels at, and one I am working on right now: Allow .NET dlls to work in a native application - doing this through C++/CLI now. The only other way to do this is through COM, which is no fun at all..... And, especially, since I do not have the source code for the native app. It uses good old LoadLibrary for calling DLLs (I have access to a scripting language for the app that does this). And yes, the syntax for C++/CLI is really ugly.

                              this is the wisest response i have received, i was just finding a way to express some frustration i had when i wass a c++ programmer, a lot of them havent had their paycheck based on software production using c++, c++ is becoming less used in STANDARD software programming as other languages rise up. When i started with c# my productivity was doubled. once a microsoft MVP told me and advice i always remember Programmer time cost a billion more times than CPU time, a programmer that doesnt understand that will be in the past forever.

                                That sounds wise, but it ignores reality by being an over-generalization. Tell this to a game programmer. Or someone in scientific computing. Or any run of the mill programmer when he/she is confronted by a problem of nontrivial size. The problem is, CPU time still costs time; if you use enough of it, it eventually becomes a problem. Back in the old days, it became a problem a lot sooner than it does now, that's all. That doesn't mean that we're not still hitting the limits, even though one might be led to believe such if all you see is business-"programming".

                                  Whatever frustration I've had with C++ doesn't compare to the nightmares I've had with Python.

                                    It actually is amusing as long as you don't have to clean up the mess our young heroes create. I once had a nice case where one tried to load an entire database into a DataSet and was totally helpless when the OutOfMemoryException came. It took half an hour to reach that point and the young Padawan could not get over the fact that no CPU or memory upgrade could prevent those two 'impossibilities' from happening. He had done everything 'the right way' after all. Stupid C# and .Net framework :) It's not magic and ignorance does not make miracles happen in some mystic fashion :)

                                    At least artificial intelligence already is superior to natural stupidity

                                          That sounds wise, but it ignores reality by being an over-generalization. Tell this to a game programmer. Or someone in scientific computing. Or any run of the mill programmer when he/she is confronted by a problem of nontrivial size. The problem is, CPU time still costs time; if you use enough of it, it eventually becomes a problem. Back in the old days, it became a problem a lot sooner than it does now, that's all. That doesn't mean that we're not still hitting the limits, even though one might be led to believe such if all you see is business-"programming".

                                          I AM A GAME PROGRAMMER, check out my articles, nowadays hard game algorithms are programmed in hardware, main engines are programmed in managed languages and critical functions are programmed in c++ or other and binded trought dll calls. Of course there are problems where CPU time is critical but those are the less. in STANDARD software development you cant allow to waste extra time optimizing your software performance because you will lose time , money , clients , clarity in the code, and the list goes on.
