I've spent decades programming C++. I wonder how it would've been had I started with C++11 or later? I feel like I had to do a lot of unlearning with that release which made things more difficult perhaps that they needed to be?

Similarly, I started Python towards the end of 2 and had to unlearn for 3. I seem to have bad timing in these things…
