Statistically, they prefer to program in ARRR?

I don't remember where I saw it but that joke reminded me of this:
What's the difference between a casual dress party and a pirate orgy? With one you come as you are, the other you Arrr! as you come.

last week I ordered a used book from Amazon: The Annotated C++ Reference Manual.
I reviewed few topics and felt it is really a great book still.
I wonder if I still need to go through it in my spare time....

My 1990 (1st?) edition is within arms length. Happy reading!

Why buy such an old book to read? Most probably some of the contents do not apply to modern C++ syntax and compiler.

You are correct - C++20 departed a lot from Stroustroup's vision, but it is still a good book for learning how he envisioned it would work, and some of the principles he outlines are important even to today's C++ programmers.
I would say that it is still a book well worth reading.

thanks for this great link! I will get one copy of it.

Because there are many C++ environments where it will be a very long time before C++20 is supported, if at all.
Knowing language basics is essential, and this book describes those basics very well indeed.

Greetings I read Mr. Stroustrup's C++ text some years ago I have yet to figure out the language it was written in His presentation seems to me convoluted He speaks at length on topics without stating the topic until he is done speaking on the topic On other occasions as best I recall he delves into Quantum Mechanics when all I wish to learn at that point is how to add two and two I would rather eat glass than read it again The model of a language text is in my humble opinion that of Harbison and Steele for C - Cheerio

EDIT: The publisher in the last day or so corrected the headline to read carbon dioxide. Apparantly the carbon monoxide was a mistake by the publisher!

He probably used to go on the interwebs and post questions like, "What do I do for a heart attack? It's URGNTZ"

You post this in jest, but there are actual professional developers out there who post these kind of questions.
Well, you've been in the industry long enough to know there are a lot of developers out there who don't deserve the title.
Don't think doctors, surgeons, lawyers, politicians, book keepers and basically anyone else is any better.
There are bunglers in every profession and I'm afraid the pro/bungler ratio favors the bunglers.
It's a scary thought

Well, you typically get carbon monoxide from incomplete combustion (as in an internal combustion engine).
He's obviously a little half-baked...

And I think the site admin for Business Insider should also lose their job, this being another example of the media screwing things up. The case, including the headline, refers consistently to carbon dioxide. However the URL, and some of the meta tags in the HTML, refer to carbon monoxide. This is not a typo; this is whoever decides on the story URL and completes the tag data for the article either not paying attention to what's been reported, or deliberately "correcting" what they feel is a mistake.
...
or maybe to differentiate it from a story about another Oregon doctor who lost his license because of carbon dioxide falsehoods...

No! Two days ago the headline said monoxide, but apparently the publisher corrected this in the mean time to dioxide.
