C++ developers exist in a perpetual state of quantum superposition. One moment they're passionately defending their language like it's the pinnacle of human achievement. The next moment they're writing a 47-page manifesto on why it should be deleted from existence. Same language, same person, different Tuesday. The video lengths tell you everything you need to know. It takes 1 minute to explain why C++ is great (raw power, performance, control). It takes 2 minutes to list everything wrong with it (segfaults, undefined behavior, template error messages that require a PhD to decode, memory management nightmares, the build system situation, and don't even get me started on the standard committee). Love-hate doesn't even begin to describe it. It's more like Stockholm syndrome with pointers.
