Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

It just might be this one: The I-95 Song[^] NSFW so use the headphones. I actually got a DJ to play this one at a family friendly bar in beautiful, downtown Cheyenne, WY in 1989, and it got quite a bit of applause.
Will Rogers never met me.

Waylon-F*ucking-Jennings FTW

It's a toss-up between "Oh Lord It's Hard to Be Humble" (Mac Davis), and "Take This Job and Shove It" (Johnny Paycheck)...

As an incredibly enthusiastic user of C++ from its very first release, I've expressed this (personal) opinion a number of times over recent years: C++ has lost its way - it now takes more time, learning, effort and skill to make good, efficient use of C++ than it takes to solve the problems one is using it for.
A caveat: I am thinking specifically of business tasks and related domains - I accept that for the most cutting edge stuff near to the metal it still offers the one of the best overall effort/performance ratios.
In part, the effort to maintain backwards compatability at almost any cost (despite the fiasco of i(o)streams and manipulators between versions 1,2 and 3) whilst adding ever more features adds huge amounts of technical debt that then has to be fought against in other ways.
This article I think demonstrates this nicely Speeding Up C++ Build Times | Figma Blog[^]
Discuss! (ducks for cover...)
