Re:C++11 and Ada 2012 - renaissance of native languages? by spitfire on Saturday June 23, 2012 @01:19PM (#4151275)
Ada actually has the sane memory management by default compared to both C++ and Java.

Pointers are, by default verboten. Pointer arithmetic will generate a compiler warning.

People should genuinely look into this stuff more rather than just dismissing it offhand. Ada got almost everything right for a procedural-OOP language. It was just too far ahead of its time.
