Survey for security professionals: Do you consider the continued use of C++ to be a problem? Why or why not?
@BRIAN_____ unique_ptr and shared_ptr are still really unsafe. I don't think the problems with it are fixable in C++ either.

@pcwalton AFAICT it would remove use-after-free (no more delete) at least in single-threaded code. Seems like a huge win but more is needed. -
@BRIAN_____ No, there are tons of ways to still have use after free. Iterator invalidation, loss of "this" pointer, dangling references, etc
