(Life) Advice From The Creator of C++

please someone remind him to comb his hair.

OMG! Bjarne Stroustrup I'm your biggest fan! I

Didn't he created Seinfeld?

i don't want to just code I want to go to mars.

Never regret the time you've spent on meth. Got it.

Advice from the creator of C++ :

🌟 Don't over specialize; stay flexible in career choices.
🌟 Prioritize building relationships and a balanced life outside of computing.
🌟 Communication skills are crucial; coding isn't the sole focus.
🌟 Broad-based education and skill set preparation is valuable.
🌟 Be prepared for opportunities and stay open to diverse learning experiences.

In other words, JUNIOR GEEKS: Go meet women, play sports and get high

ssSSS🦻

Didn't know the creator was Danish..
But I don't know if he is.. But I'm pretty sure considering the deep Danish accent 😅

When you give enough advices to the young, you realize that some knowledge can only be earned, not taught. Unfortunate for the young, but fortunate for the seasoned.

Interesting stuff. Now please get serious and open the yellow Lego box!

Thank you Herbert, The Per...

He reminds me of Dr. Emmet Brown from the back to the future trilogy.

Way back when I learned C, C++ was already out but I had not seen it yet. I knew nothing about C++. But I remember saying to myself, "I wish I could attach code to structures (struct)". I am NOT trying to say I'm, in ANY way, as smart as this guy but I did at least conceive have having code go along with data structures. I probably never would have thought of constructors, destructors, inheritance, etc. All that went though my mind was "structs with functions"...

Is this a skit from Programmers are also human?

The sound your new basketball shoes make in a basketball court 🙂

"Use C".

☺️ Life? And C++? See more. See beyond. See faster than the speed of light. Say what you c++.

C ples ples (c)

i cannot believe this betrayal

Cool, first programming language which I tried to learn was C++

C++ is dead

To put it in words that the people he's speaking to understand: Go touch grass!

My god the S sounds just rip my ears out

I needed this

He basically told us to "Touch grass".

Could have done with running a de-esser or some sort of audio correction on this. Poor guy's got the l"Herbert the pervert" whistle going on. 😬

Generic advices around his regret disappointed

Well, I think it can also go the other way. I am 22 now and even tho I was a smart kid and was trying to learn programming at 14 or smth, I never did it in the end. I was busy partying and worrying about friends and women. I have no academic achievements and as of right now, no Job other than something like working at a cash register would employ me. Given my latest grade certificate, maybe not even they would.

I think people always miss what they lack, no matter if it is logical or not. You may have focused all your energy on programming and now you think that was a mistake. For me, at least as of now, it feels like I just want to forget the last 10 years and start over, doing nothing else. Then I would at least have a fucking job, you know?

Meet the people that you're creating something for first, then go learn whatever you gotta learn to make something for those friends. If you wanna make games, meet the players, not the artists or programmers, hang out with them and become their friends, and then learn what you've gotta learn to entertain them.

this fgot robbed millions of programmers of their time with C"""""++++"""""

What if you write code that can communicate for you?

Yes, but you have to consider that the basic structure of our society, after you patternize the rhetoric of your political institutions that control your life, then you understand why your life is totally unbalanced. There simply won't be any balance until you build the first institution that favours that balance. The fact that there is no such institution is why most guys will die without having any positive interaction with the world.

what is he expecting me to do, get 2 degrees?

Here is my advice. Anything that keeps you out of loving and being loved by humans is not worth the work, even if your work was collecting gold coins from the floor. I wish I knew this in my youth age. I regretted so much wasting time on computer/coding stuff..

thanks for creating C++, then I can get a job

C++, the most beautiful programming language on this planet. The pioneer of object oriented programming methodology.

His name is misspelled

My own advice: get a decent haircut. Go back in time and de-invent C++, it's a HORRIBLE language. C# FTW!

Taking advice from software techie seems very foony to me

As a Lead Data Engineer, communication is EVERYTHING, collaboration is key to bring success to any of your projects, in my experience all of the projects that get stuck it is because of lack of communication and collaboration between colleagues or entire teams. Even if you are dealing with factually undertrained or egotistical people, talk to them, bring them to calls and show them clearly what the problems are from your prespective, make them understand why the process does not work.

aq malah bosan sama orang pak.... gitu2 aja kelakuannya. aq pingin ngomputing

Dude, I'm trying to change the world and make an impact. I just have to find the right avenue man.

This is the best advice I've ever heard. I spent a lot of time in front of computers a lot of time to learn CS, C++ and another language and technologies. Now I need to spent my time in my real life, take care of my health and live our the only one life. And my health will be fine and pay attention not only computers.

of course he has the genius hairstyle

Please use a de-esser on his voice next time :')
