How many people code in C these days, and if so, why?

nctnico:
I have C++ classes which I re-use too. Usually a bit of tweaking or overloading of functions is needed to accomodate an existing class to a new project. Some of these classes also date back to over a decade ago.

Are you talking about the practices of a sizeable commercial software developer, or you personally? I'm mostly curious about how commercial developers view the whole OO approach, and if they're as excited about it as I assumed they are.

An interesting article about C++ in microcontrollers.

Mine is too. That is funny as shit but so true.

There used to be a website called fuckedcompany.com but they had to take it down because of the legal threats and battles. Now all you have is glassdoor and stuff but my understanding is if you are a company you can actually "pay" to have a better ranking. I've been in companies so fucked up you felt like you needed a rectal exam each day but in glassdoor they look rosy. So you ask yourself how is that possible when everyone you know hates the place. Well .. they buy their ranking.
