    I watched an hour long video on why C++ sucks. I thought it wouldn’t be too hard to pick up since I can program well in probably 7 languages. I was wrong, now I’m convinced C++ is a dumpster fire and needs to die and I’ll never get a job in it unless someone holds a gun to my kid.

      I may have missed the joke but C++ doesn’t have built in garbage collector. Even recent versions of the standard merely allow it but don’t specify it is required.

      Did you forget the /s or is this the tactic where you intentionally post wrong statements in order to get people to correct you so that you learn something?

      C++ doesn’t have a garbage collector
