Did you happen to see the reference to Blaise Pascal

I don't consider myself a talented C++ developer. Leave it to C++ to be able give anyone imposter syndrome. Just when I think I've mastered some aspect of the language, it throws me a curveball. I swear mastering it takes more than one lifetime.
I however, grudgingly acknowledge that people routinely say I'm a talented C++ developer, because it would be foolish for me not to.

Yeah. Some pretty smart folks on Stack Overflow (but also lots of n00b posts, and they have their fair share of rather arrogant / emotionally underdeveloped people). I've learned a lot by hanging out there, including how better to conduct myself online. Rewrote my codebase as a result!

Damn it. If you are not a talented c++ dev... then 95% of the people here are just beginners (and I am a n00b)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I think @GregUtas probably knows C++ better than I do. I'm sure he's not the only one. Codeproject has a deep bench.

You're not a talented C++ developer. You're a very talented C++ developer.

I take that as high praise indeed coming from you, Greg.

Is the pool of C++ developers running dry, or are C++ developers getting tired of working for peanuts?

IDK, but I thought they were paid reasonably well. Haven't look into it tho, I work for myself (memo to self: ask for a pay rise) x

You know, titles like this are a complete bait and switch. 1 paragraph in, and it's all about financial firms in NYC can't get enough people. I know C++, and I would NEVER live in NYC. Yuck. I have one bucket list thing - I want to see a Yankees game - that's it.
I've seen about 20 years of people writing C++. Usually C programmers passing stuff through the C++ compiler. Whoop-dee-doo. I don't care if it's on an embedded system. You better damn sure think carefully before using that global tag. That tells me all I need to know about your C++ skills.
Trying to explain the 4 pillars to C/Embedded system developers is like beating my head against a brick wall:
Them: "But it's more efficient and faster."
Me: "You are coupling two pieces of code together that have nothing to do with each other. Besides making the system brittle, your code only runs at
startup. Don't do that, bad idea."
Them: <blink> <blink> deer in headlight look.
Then there are the really smart guys (not being sarcastic) that know better, but do it anyway, violating the architecture and injecting multiple bugs into shipping product.

My wife did 502 in 4 attempts last night around midnight. Woke up this morning to a blank Wordle but was sure she did it already so typed in the answer again and got credit for doing it in 1 attempt. Now I am accusing her of hacking Wordle ...and she has become slightly more sexy to me
