I've recently decided to learn c++. I've used Java for over a decade and have had felt little reason to learn c++ until now.

What changed? There is code I need to do maintain in c++. If I don't do it, it might not happen.

Sounds like you are in a similar situation.

It feels weird learning a language competing with a HN darling (Rust), but I have the need.
