    @lazy-dev if it's exploded then how can you watch it? I guess you could mindlessly watch it...

    @billgates I've basically never read a book in my entire life (except when forced in school)

    I was mind blown by typed languages too lol ;)

    I went from JS & Python to c# and it was... Interesting

    @Dacexi it might help prevent the melting.... i started Lean C++ in 24 Hours but then stopped as didn't need it anymore... and once again couldn't think of why I would need it...

    I still have CLion installed on my PC tho...

    @stevemk14ebr why should I learn it if I already know java, c#, js, Python? I need some personal motivation.

    Also "because it can get you a job" won't work for me.

    Well for a few reasons IMHO.

    First c++ is a language that lets you do basically anything you want to. Your only limitation is how into the syntactic template weeds you go or how low level of a hike you dig

    Second you should learn for fun

    @shivayl if you ask me the hardest part is to get the compiler to recognize your custom libs you've installed lol

    @shivayl best is to actually watch cppcon videos on YouTube and just try to make something. Your first reference should be cppreference.com. Just pick a project and google until it's done. That's how I bootstrapped my learning
