Linus Torvalds: C++ is a horrible language. Part 2.

Long time ago Linus Torvalds has expressed himself on C++.
Today I found another posts of his on the subject.
...And I really do dislike C++. It's a really bad language, in
my opinion. It tries to solve all the wrong problems, and
does not tackle the right ones. The things C++ "solves"
are trivial things, almost purely syntactic extensions to
C rather than fixing some true deep problem...
Linus
Check the whole thing out. I find also this very interesting opinion.
I mean, just check the whole thread there out and look for Linus' posts. I think this is worth a read. Not really news but nicely expressed...

Linus Torvalds: C++ is a horrible language

Linus expressed his self and his thoughts about C++ language in this topic (the full thread).
Very entertaining to read.
I also found a couple of polite comments from Andrei Alexandrescu on the subject.
