You can get away with that with some languages, C# for instance has very little to trip you up. C++ on the other hand has dark corners that will cause problems. For instance not knowing about the issues with virtual destructors could come back to bite you.

It will but I happen to know about virtual destructors. I do some reading every once in a while to glance over the things. So some interesting pieces get stuck in my secondary RAM ;) But yes I know C++ could be a dangerous beast but so far it's been kind to me.
