um, modern c++ has for at least the past 10 years advised people not to manually manage memory.
not really, RAII/shared_ptrs is still manual memory management, just less footguns
well, i would not recommend shared_ptr except under rare circumstances, but i don't see what can be wrong with RAII. in fact, it is the languages thar don't have RAII that have the problems, IMHO.
its the same as the tools rust provides you, so if that's true it bodes poorly for the supposed c++ successor.
