Because it's by far one of the most annoying issues every developer has with Apple now. It's so frustrating to see the syntax highlighting and auto completion engine crash continuously as you try to figure out what line causes it just so you can rewrite it the more verbose way for the engine not to choke. You may think this has to be a beta version or a newly introduced bug, but no, these issues have been there in the official release for at least 1 1/2 years now. It got better over time, yes, but it's still far from being where it should be.

The title is very misleading. I was expecting a discussion about the future of programming, why there will probably never be a "best" language or why we're not all using functional languages yet. Was disappointed after reading the first sentence:

> Yes, you've guessed correctly - the answer is "42". In this article you will find 42 recommendations about coding in C++ that can help a programmer avoid a lot of errors, save time and effort.

The article states that these tips are 'usually universal', but I hardly found that to be true, only having counted about 10 points not being about C++.

The title should probably be something like the obvious "42 tips for C++ programmers" as the current one really doesn't justify the content.
