Explicitly and between the lines, Carruth and Google have made it clear that the “bad” part of C++ from their perspective is the standards committee. In particular, the committee’s unwillingness to make ABI-breaking changes to the language, or more abstractly, to consider the needs of organizations with huge active code bases at least as seriously as those with huge legacy code bases. | ||

I understand but there are trade-offs there. Maybe a hybrid approach should be done byt breaking ABI in a so Core-supported language can cascade into so many places. People say that Rust is great bc of that but that is just a trade-off and anyway there are olenty of dependencies like Boost, Abseil or others that can play that role anyways |
