As someone who works for the company mentioned, we already have offers for emerging markets such as this in an innovations team. The unfortunate reality is that manufacturers don't want to go through the time and cost of regulatory certification unless demanded by some agency in power. The innovations team consistently underperforms compared to our EMC and Wireless/RF teams, which performs certification required by government agencies such as the FCC.

How do you think these luxuries you were provided were given to you?

If you are operating within a managed usermode level of an operating system then what you say is perfectly valid, especially for programs that do not require high availability such as web servers. You can program in a managed environment and trust in your languages JIT/GC to handle low level optimization.

On embedded systems, software that requires high availability (video games for example), or kernel mode drivers and firmware, you are not always allowed that luxury. Understanding of and strong micromanagement of how memory is allocated and moved around the system becomes more and more crucial. It could be hardware limitations of the device that cause this, or in the case of firmware or drivers, any overhead that would be acceptable in a usermode application will be felt throughout the environment when you work on low-level.

TLDR you and the parent post are talking about apples and oranges.

Its a tin foil hat thing. The mmWave frequencies are only going to be used in high population dense areas and will run at a lower power. Other than this, 5G will operate much like LTE with a few additions like beamforming antenna arrays. Frequency has very little to do with health risk until you get into MUCH higher frequencies than what we operate in. Its about output power, and this is federally regulated by most countries.

This conversation is no longer of any benefit, but for the sake of you and your co-workers... Saying that C is predictably inferior, more expensive, and less maintainable shows a blatant amount of incompetence on how either languages operate. C++ only offers abstractions to (debatably) more easily allow for an object oriented design for codebases. Semantically everything that you can do in C++, you can do in C.

There are plenty of features in C++ that are beneficial, particularly the handful of mechanisms that allow you to move away from #defines, but to compare performance between C and C++ simply shows ignorance.
