That was also the day we realized how much nicer C was to C++

Absolutely. I went through a whole process of using less and less C++isms that everyone was recommending me as they just made everything so much harder, longer to compile, produce more unreadable errors, harder to organize... Until I eventually was just writing C but structs have functions.

Then I moved to Rust and I have not looked back.
