hahahahaaa...I could have made this (in C)
Found this video this morning and it made me smile. It resonates close to my view of the world too. Apologies upfront, if I become an old man and wander off telling you a much longer story linking into the theme so you can get context of what I'm trying to explain. Apparently, I've hit "that age"... I recall being taught MODULA-2 , PASCAL and then C back in the 1988-1992 period of time. Maybe I just missed those classes at University in late 1992/1993 when they started to talk about C++, I didn't get it, the fact I can still remember the pain of having to try and write a shed load of code to draw a Christmas tree on the screen, with baubles (circles) and the tree structure (triangles) all doing tons of code to setup a structure for object-orientation just for the sake of it. My view, every 10 lines of code you write you introduce a bug of some sort. You've written 100 lines for a Christmas tree in C++... I even remember getting so annoyed I re-wrot...
