The C++ feature set is a giant tome written in an unsteady hand and bound with suspicious leather. You’re supposed to study it deeply, use as little as possible, and ideally have a backup plan if things go wrong for this plane of existence.
i like to think of C++ as a testing ground for new features and paradigms. to see how some concepts will handle in production.
An excellent perspective.
Announcement N: “C++ can now do [blank]!”

“Well, it fits in my pocket now.”
Pocket ranges from 0 to let’s say 64 GB
