I cant argue with any of things you said, but I'll take C++ over javascript and most of the newer languages any day.

Fuck virtual memory bullshit.

Fuck garbage collection

Fuck dynamic typing

Fuck interpreted languages altogether

Personally I like Rust, and think it is a lot of the things C++ should have been

C works on anything. My windows box. My Linux box. My dos box. My microcontroller.

But, Microsoft likes rust, so it's got to be good and stable.

Hold on a sec, I just threw up in my mouth, I gotta swallow this crap now.

Holy shit, my tongue feels like it is burning with acid puke.

So does Rust

It is memory safe unlike C/C++ and just as fast on benchmark tests

C is a great langauge, I like it and was defending it, but I like Rust for a lot of the same reasons

For every platform you're almost guaranteed to have a C89 compiler. Other languages don't have as widespread support, even C99.

Rust does not run on Arduino.

Rust does not run on Arduino.

Are you some kind of idiot? If you had bothered to take 5 seconds to to verify this you would see that you are very wrong. Why the fuck are you wasting my time with bullshit that you can't even bother to look up
