Programming

This kind of article really gives a "never meet your heroes vibe".

At least for the brain-dead C++ push. The language is unfortunately not going away with all the millions of crappy legacy code out there, but please let the kids move on with the times.

90% of C++ knowledge is language specific UB crap that has nothing to do with software development anyway. Pushing the language in 2025 makes you look like a Luddite. Any combination C/Rust + Python/C# + OCaml/Haskell ought to teach you a bit of everything, without having to learn the difference between auto and decltype(auto), a billion initialisation options, a billion value-types, and whatever crap is going to generate 100 lines of undecipherable template errors

“I don’t consider anyone a professional if they only know only one language,” he said

oh that's why cpp brought all languages to itself

What he does not mention is that the three types of courses will all follow the same template, with the specifics not being instantiated until the course is actually being taught.

I wondered how many hot takes there would be... was not disappointed.
