How do you end up being a C++ developer that hates the language? I’m a C++ developer as well, and if I ever decided that’s I didn’t like what I was doing every day I’d learn a different language and try to get hired for that.
I’ve been an iOS engineer for 7 years and I’m not exactly a fan of Objective-C. I’m good at it though, I know where all the sore spots are and part of my value is I can stop people from hurting themselves with the language. One day, inshallah, our team can eventually move on to swift (thank you ABI compatibility).
Until then I work in it because my goal (and my job) is to deliver amazing products and experiences to my customers and if I had to do that in COBOL, I’d do that too. My job is not about the language for me, it’s about what I’m doing with it.
