    In this blog post, I’ll talk about the C++ Lifetime Profile, explaining what it is, how it intends to reduce the problems typically caused by the memory-unsafe characteristics of C++, what the status of the current implementation of the Lifetime Profile is, and what the current limitations are.

    Convert it into Pascal code?

      But that means it'll remain my responsibility until it's fixed! Wotta revoltin' development! And after we'd only just finished discussing the reason for working as part of a team, too!

      I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

        sounds rather Rust-like. I like the idea.

          From the brief look I had, not as powerful as Rust's lifetime guarantees, but for C++ it's a massive step in the right direction.
