why on earth is Bitcoin written in C++? I thought C would have been the first and better choice.

Hard lol at "better" and "worse" programming languages. Presumably all code for all devices would be "better" if it was written in machine code? Cheesy

That goes without saying.

No it doesn't, I was being sarcastic.

There are no "better" and "worse" programming languages in the abstract, only good choices for specific cases. And so Kano's comment about python being a "crappy" language was not correct to begin with, he just doesn't use it for his serious work because he works on software that needs something lower-level. And that he has a massive superiority/inferiority complex (although this doesn't change the fact that I love him dearly Wink)
