Question: What do u think about Linus Torvalds' opinion about C++?
Asked by Rodrigo (161.148.171.x) on April 27 2012, 6:20pm
Reply on April 28 2012, 1:24am:
    I think he says mostly very reasonable, sensible things, and occasionally says things that are really controversial in order to make a point. Generally I agree with him -- allowing the linux kernel to use C++ would be a Very Bad Thing -- not because C++ is inherently awful, but because it allows (some might even say encourages) people to do terrible things. There are many features of C++ which are absolutely dreadful, and if you avoid those, it can be a rather nice improvement over C.
