Comment on Reader Q&A: "Will C++ remain indispensable…?" by Herb Sutter

@pjmlp: Yes. He is smart and a good guy, but so negative that I wonder whether we were at the same conference. He’s welcome to his opinion, and many people have said the same; but I don’t share it, and I disagree with most of his examples.

Two particular things he’s wrong about involve compatibility:

1. He underestimates the importance of source backward compatibility. It’s extremely important, see here: http://herbsutter.com/2012/12/04/compatibility/

2. He overestimates the complexity cost of source backward compatibility. It isn’t as high or important as he thinks.

I’ll talk about this on Tuesday night in Chicago at the Chicago C++ Users Group meeting: https://sites.google.com/a/chicagoacm.org/chicago-chapter-of-the-acm/meeting-topics/2013-09-24-onec-herb-sutter (Note it says the event is at capacity, but they’re looking for a bigger room, so do add yourself to the waiting list.)
