Nothing to do with whether it goes wrong and all to do with whether they get
used in code or interviews.

If a company requires you to know Boost or Mongo-C it'll say so explicitely
in the job spec. When they say "C++20 desired" what does that mean? Which bit?
All of it? Who fucking knows!

You're repeating yourself.

If I need 3 level locking (which I do in most threaded programs) then its
pthreads for me because the simpleton C++ threading model doesn't support it.

Why haven't the committee implemented multi-process support in C++? Oh wait,
Windows multi-process model is a joke, thats why. Lowest common denominator
wins again.
