It's amazing how many software houses/departments don't do that. But of
course, if they don't it's their own damn problem.
They want low-salary programmers, so they will avoid languages that
may lead to higher salaries. This means uncommon languages (where
programmers are more rare) or languages that may need the ability to
read (or even write) "harder code" (like inline assembly).

This is one of the reasons why Java has become such a huge language
in the IT world.
yeah but to be fair, I work in a fully C++ shop and only 3 (maybe 4) of
us out of 18 will *ever* write template code.
even for really trival stuff.
In my xp, most c++ programmers just don't/can't get templates and I very
much doubt that awkward syntax is the root cause.
if you are one of those people why whould you chose a language with
templates? they are off no dam use to you.
