#94I want to love C++.
Over my career I’ve written hundreds of thousands of lines of it.
But keeping up with it is time consuming and more and more I find myself reaching for other languages.

I went from being curious about C++, to hating C++, to wanting to love it, to being fine with it, to using it for work for 5+ years, to abandoning it and finally to want to use it for game development, maybe. It's the circle of life.

I've been writing C++ since 1996-ish.
Less and less, for sure.

On the other hand, the decline of robust and high quality software started with the introduction of very immature languages such as both javascript or typescript ecosystems.
It's really any other language other than those two.
