Similarly, sorry, but C++ is doomed to be forever solely used for (a) maintaining codebases that noone wants to maintain but doesn't have a choice, and (b) organising cpp conferences to maintain self-confidence of a crowd of programmers whose skill set is becoming more and more outdated.

Rust is essentially C++ done right. It isn't as aggravating as C++ but it is the same technology essentially. It doesn't bring anything new to the table. It's yet another LLVM frontend.

We need to look into something far more fascinating like http://www.spiral.net/ Something that creates value a mere compiler, which is a technology from the 50s, can not.

Your comment is just as needlessly inflammatory as theirs. Chill.
