I think it'd genuinely boggle some people's minds just how much new c++ code is written everyday. It's not a dead horse at all.

I'm afraid plenty of programmers decided to break up with C++ and turn to easier languages after having enough of it, usually forever and in anger.

This doesn't make C++ dead, even if it is dead to them; see Aesop's fable about the Fox and the Grapes for an in-depth analysis.
