The cradle series written by Will Wight, narrated by Travis Baldree. Eastern inspired progression fantasy with fantastic characters and world

I’m learning c++ via exercism because I’d like to use it for game development and other high performance use cases, and because it’s a good pip for the resume.

In fact, I mostly did this because so many job listings mention it, haven’t even come up with a high-scale game dev problem to solve.

I’ll probably continue because I find it interesting and no amount of practice is bad, but my question is how is everyone letting this affect their outlook on c++ in their career vs side projects, etc. Really, I’m having a hard time imagining why it was important for this to be said in this way instead of just changing internal policies and job listings.
