Kate editor code base is just the first random repository I happened to hit on the net. Many other examples of competently designed and executed c++ projects are readily available. I get it. OP does not really know the language and wants to blame that on the language. Meanwhile, countless other practitioners are perfectly able to function and use the tool as appropriate and to advantage.
"Can you even link to one in C++?" What rubbish. Agree that there is a special place in hell for people who implement new languages in template code, but such idiocy is hardly the exclusive domain of C++.
You've pretty much outied yourself as someone who has C++ on their resume in spite of having only a limited reading knowledge at best. Why don't you start by reading some code for the Kate editor? Seems pretty approachable to me. QT centric, but that's not a bad thing.
Sounds like you found it too confusing. But really, C++ is much better with lamdas, you can get rid of functors for one thing, type deduction is working really well these days, generalized const exprs are really handy, etc etc. I'm not sure you understood what you were reading, you certainly did not provide any specifics. Better think about taking C++ off your resume, because if you run into a competent practitioner you risk being unmasked as someone who knows about the language, does not know the language.
No, I can absolutely guarantee that if you learn C++ without specifically learning C, then you do NOT know C.
Wrong, it only shows that your knowledge of C++ is incomplete, and that you will be a clear and present danger to any serious programming project. If your understanding of C++ is so limited you would be well advised to stick to the ilk of Java or html.
C++ style development is obviously different, but If you are incapable of translating any high level thing you do in C++ back into plain C then your weak fundamentals make you a second string developer. Most embedded development is not kernel programming and the shift away from C to C++ in that space is real. You can choose to be ahead of the curve or behind it.
Just C on your resume without C++ will pigeonhole you as a code monkey. Learn C++ and you will also know C, which is essentially just C++ with subtractions. These days, it would be rare to encounter an embedded tool chain that does not support both C and C++, usually with the same compiler.
Not fake news, but it's certainly non-techie news...
If you insist on a techie dimension to the story, then think about why Flynn believed that his conversation with the Russian ambassador was secure and immune to evesdropping.
Is there any possible justification for withholding full details of the failure, in the public interest? If a bridge had collapsed instead, would it be possible to withhold details? Is it OK for this to just happen again at some random time?
How about this scenario: Flynn charged under the Logan act, result a foregone conclusion, sings for a plea bargain. Pattern of coordination between Russian government hackers and Trump campaign exposed.
What did Trump know and when did he know it? Obvious followup. (Watergate reference, if you are the only reader who does not already know it.) The NSA most probably already knows the answer but may be unwilling to reveal just how pervasive domestic surveillance really is. Now we await "deep throat". Nixon all over again, the main difference is 30 points less IQ.
but on the desktop, Linux is a pathetic joke compared to every single other operating system.
See? In the meantime, Linux has billions of users in its handset, embedded and server forms, and somewhere in the region of 100 million on the desktop, all managing to do their work in comfort in spite of troll FUD to the contrary. Growing rapidly. It's the price and quality, you see. Hang yourself up on a hook in the barn, you're not useful to anybody any more.
Java today is a pointless language used only because other people are using it.
That would be wishful thinking. Java is picked for new projects for the same reasons as always: you don't need to be a genius to master it and it does provide the software engineering features necessary for large scale projects, however clumsy they may be. You would be certifiably nuts to pick C for anything at enterprise scale. That would be a firing offense. Rust looks promising but unproven, maybe it will be a conservative pick five years from now. C# and Go requiring buying into, respectively, Microsoft's and Google's ecosystems. There is no reason to think that Microsoft intends to play the intellectual property game any nicer than Oracle does. Go is immature and has been crticized for lack of extensibility. Python is a viable choice for many projects, though it continues to suffer from inattention to performance and threading issues and idiosyncratic warts such as significant whitespace. Javascript is a horribly flawed language with huge support, mature JIT optimization, and a broad talent pool that make it a viable choice particularly for frontend work. As of today, there is no alternative that deals a knockout punch to Java, however much we wish there were.
Just as evil as ever. To this day, the pustulent ghost of Grand Architect Gates still restlessly wanders the halls of Redmond, shedding clouds of toxic dandruff that instantly purges whoever it contacts of all morality.
The summary mentions Russia Today and Fox News, but not CNN?
Russian Toady and Faux News? CNN doesn't even come close to the same level of alternate.
It is well known that Russia Today is a mouthpiece for the Homicidal Russian regime. Fox news doesn't even come close to that level of depravity, though as everybody knows, hemlines and cleavage matter more in that forum than balanced reporting. CNN is a veritable bastion of virtue by comparison, though to be honest I do not waste my time with it. What really disgusts me are the trumpist shitmodders who camp on Slashdot now. Surely they are outnumbered by real people.
Why do I get the feeling that a nest of Russians working for Trump is attacking Slashdot? Or is it Trumpists working for Russia?

Educate yourself about Russia Today. Downmod this and prove that it is true.
Why do we refer to a userspace infrastructure/UI API as an OS?
Post-truth.

You C++ people should realize it's your days that are counted blah blah blah...
Haha, you are very funny. I'm a C person.

The only real issue is, the story should be tagged as Darwin.

Regardless of the likelihood of playing out exactly that way, it could, and someone is surely already feeling the heat.

My department has some 2.5 million Word documents
Somebody needs to be fired immediately.
I am not a Linux hater...
Yes you are.

You need to lay off those magic mushrooms. Linus has nothing to do with user space applications on Linux.
BTW, Krita is already a better tool for artists than Photoshop, and it just keeps getting better. Cost per seat: $0.00.
Your rant about Libreoffice is just pure braindamaged rambling.
What kind of phone do you have? Wifi router? Which ISP do you use? You're using Linux and liking it whether you have a stick up your ass or not.
