13:11 nanoz aditsu, do you know C++?
13:15 aditsu yeah, but not as well as I used to
13:16 nanoz wow!
13:20 aditsu it's kinda like java but with a lot more potholes :p
13:45 nanoz why learn C++?
13:45 nanoz golang is great
13:45 nanoz but it lacks collections
13:45 aditsu I think Go didn't exist when I learned C++; I checked it out a bit but didn't like it very much
13:47 nanoz golang is great felt its very interesting language
13:47 nanoz minialistic and great
14:00 nanoz what are the potholes you're referring? aditsu
14:02 aditsu memory management is a big one, then complicated template system, operator overloading can trip you up sometimes
14:03 aditsu some legacy features inherited from C
14:06 nanoz wont it give great control?
14:09 aditsu it does give you more control, but you need to put more effort to make it work correctly and safely
14:13 aditsu also C++ compiler errors can be horrific
