Someone needs to be unsubscribed

Some guy at ibraheem@localhost(?) needs to be unsubscribed. I keep getting
bounces from his ISP everytime I post. Surely, everyone else is getting the
same?

I wonder if even the inventor C++ had C+±as-we-know-it in mind.

Surely it doesn’t need to be said anymore, but I still am. What’s happening
with this?

A good question. I used the very earliest C++ available (actually a
pre-processor for K&R C in the early '80s) and it bears little resemblance to
what is called C++ today. I think one would do well to confine oneself to a
very select subset of C++. One would do even better to use Obj-C instead.

Yep, me too, although I bet due to RubyConf/OOPSLA, it may be a little
longer yet…

“I invented the term Screaming Yellow Zonkers, and I can tell you that
I did not have x86 assembly language in mind.”

Read the book “The Design and Evolution of C++”, written by the
inventor of C++. The answer is “mostly,” but he’s more or less happy
with it.
