You getting downvoted for this completely inoffensive (at worst) comment is pretty sad

I swear C++ gets a bad rap because most people have only seen a gross mixture of C++98 and C in their codebases

A fully modern C++11 codebase is a beautiful thing

Why are you so sure the downvotes are not coming from the opinion of the "ridiculously pedantic OO of Java"?

Maybe because no body had commented as such until now? I am rather practical about this: I don't really like Java because it forces things that make more sense as functions to be under an object. What if I just want a simple global utility function, and don't want to make every single class inherit from a class containing only that? It's a lot of unnecessary hassle for something like that. I'm not saying OO is bad, I said it was too pedantic. I like languages which allow you to do what makes sense.
