"In this video, Bjarne Stroustrup explains why he thinks C is obsolete. He explains that the languages should have been merged into one, so that C would have been a subset of C++ instead of nearly a subset of C++. And then people could have used whatever parts of the C++ tool set they needed. "

Yeah right, a language/platform is a bag of fun toys out of which you can pick whichever ones you want, and all is well and everyone is happy. How can a programmer who has any experience claim something so ridiculous? When you decide on a platform, you have to live with whatever is there, the good and the bad. You can't tell people to use some feature but not touch this library, or not include that other package but write yours instead.
