I may eat downvotes but here's an honest opinion nonetheless: this article shows almost exactly why I wouldn't touch C++ with a ten-foot pole still, after running away screaming from it 11-12 years ago.

Not saying it's an unique problem with C++'s tooling. I'm just saying that it has been my experience that one is much more likely to stumble upon such horrors while working with C++ as opposed to at least 7 other languages I worked with.

I'll take the slower Rust and Go and Elixir, thank you very much.

Don't take this as trash-talking, though. I simply want to get things done, not fight my environment.
