It didn&#x27;t come off as an insult to me. Anyone saying C++ or Nim tends to result in a counter from pcwalton. He usually says similar things as he has a consistent stance. Countering such a stance before they speak is OK given you already know what it is. In in a moral sense anyway.<p>However, that he stopped in his own comment to bring it up and drop a counter says more about him than pcwalton. Shows a strong bias for and protectiveness of Nim while also disregarding the entire reliability or security aspects of the language. That&#x27;s really something for a C++ alternative given its safety focus. ;)
