I thought that this was going to be a play on the phrase, “Don’t trust anyone over 30,” but it’s just a very short piece about Dunning-Kruger aimed specifically at some C++ concepts.

Remind me why we don’t trust anyone over 30?

Generally, that recommendation is bullshit.

Because I’m over thirty and if we sit down and play a game of Battlestar Galactica together I will inevitably be a Cylon and I’ll absolutely throw you out of the airlock. I’m over thirty and I’m a real fucking bastard when it comes to deception social boardgames.

Looks like the original post (short article?) was in 2010. Thinking of how C++ has evolved since then, I have a hard time believing anyone but the most involved and dedicated C++ developers can really understand all of how C++ works. Heck, even the compilers don’t seem to have a full grasp of C++ these days (at least with regards to modules).

@Aboel3z@programming.dev do you plan on ever interacting with the community or do you post your links to drive Medium engagement? You have already deleted one post today without answering any of the interesting questions posted in the comments.
