It's probably a bit hypocriticalist of me to post anything off-topic
at this point, but why break the habits of a lifetime?

Some people here might enjoy a new book from Apress called "Coders at
Work". It consists of interviews with people including Ken Thompson,
Don Knuth, and Jamie Zawinski (key quote from the latter: "C++ is just
an abomination. Everything is wrong with it in every way.")
