A nice bash of the C++ FAQ, naturally bashing C++ as well. Makes a lot 
of good points, methinks, as well as expressing things with some good 
comedic timing and such.

One of my favorite entries:

[25.6] Is there a simple way to visualize all these tradeoffs?

FAQ: Here's a matrix with cute smilies for ya. Just don't apply it naively.

(Cute matrix omitted to avoid copyright problems, as well as cuteness 
problems)

FQA: WARNING: there's no known way to represent common sense in a 
tabular form at the time of writing. Therefore, if you choose to store 
the cute matrix anywhere in your brain, you do it at your own risk.

     used to complain about cryptography
     being export-restricted?
