You can take

   for (auto const & ess : esses) {
         ...
   }

from my cold dead hands.

Also, you can fight me if you want to take

      dynamic_cast<Derived> (base_ptr)

and force me to implement my own typing system every time I need to upcast.

Basically, stick with C and leave C++ programmers alone. I haven't seen a less useful article about C++ in a long time, and as an HN reader, that's really saying something.

Such a missed opportunity to call it C <orthodox cross emoji>

Looks like the page was moved from a GitHub gist to a github.io page in October of last year.
