Interesting, thanks for sharing. So do you think I should avoid C++ altogether and stick to C? What about Google? Google uses C++ a lot and they seem pretty fine/stable to me? Maybe C++ can be good web architectural stuff (not as complex as an operating system)?
treat the c++ standard as an assembly language of sort, from which higher level langs are built, like boost. if you look at it this way, you can carve out a sane section and deal with it. if you try to hold the entirety of it in your head and code, its hell
Can anyone recommend a book that deals with the web/server-side aspect of C++ coding? I'm nearly half way through Thinking in C++ by Bruce Eckel (wonderfully well written!) but it doesn't look like it's getting near there.
