C++ over Elixir cracks me up. I feel like no matter how hard you try, no one really “””knows””” C++ (given library vastness and all that).

This ended up high up on the front page of Hacker News. I am interested to know why. For those upvoting it, what did you find valuable in it?

All stories start out on the front page: most don’t stay there. This is relatively new (less than an hour old) during a period of relatively low activity. The fact that it may still be on the front page says more about current activity on HN than anything particular about this submission.

C++ over Go, Scala over Clojure? C and C++ are of the same complexity?

Probably the only person who really knows C++ is Scott Meyers

Do they? I think most stories don't make it past new unless they get a handful of upvotes.
