    I have decades of C++ experience. I have never met any C++ developer who hasn’t shot himself in the foot regularly with this damn language.

      But it’s the funniest language IMO, you can do frigging anything with it.

      Which is why it causes problems of course.

        I need to find the nut meme about programming languages again

        Edit: Well this meme at least gets the gist of it

            You get a matrix, and you get a matrix. Everything gets a matrix. That’s my main memory from OpenGL.

                It’s been a while. Is worldmatrix the same as viewmatrix? Or is that a whole other matrix?

                  View matrix has the perspective 1/v thing in it IIRC, the world euh, yeah it was a long time ago…

                Yup. All of that. And the modes got even weirder too.

      Most C++ devs blame themselves and not the language though. So it still gets used a lot.
