What's the difference between an exemplar and an example?
between “OOP” and “sir, this is C”.
That's more templates, ownership and operator overloading.
Polymorphism is not a modern way to program because it introduces dependencies and enormous speed hits from pointer chasing, both of which are corrosive to a good program.
Yep. Interface-based (true) delegation between objects would be my go-to if it existed.
The example definitely shines. Doing something barely non-trivial is great since it gives a feeling for the language. I wish other language introduction pages would take note.
It does feel like you need some shared understanding with the author about what the interesting parts of a programming language are and what can be left implicit.
Perhaps the author and I have similar intuitions? I guess I also like that isn't pure LLM output style. It was refreshing to see some human work.
