Nice episode


    

      
I first heard Kevlin speak at SD West 2008 (Feb '08) and was quite impressed.  In this podcast, I think he does a great job of giving a honest and balanced view of C++.  He goes beyond the simple "use the right tool for the right job" spiel and gives some really good insights into various language features.


Great interview - thanks!
