To be fair, YosefK's FQA is a truly great piece of work, and something that every seriuos C++ developer really should read and internalize. The criticisms in it, both of the language and the culture around it, are biting and valid. And it's a fun read too.
Really I think one of the best things to be pointed out about C++11 is that YosefK's response is... a little disappointing. Sure, he makes some good points (I liked the "array[5]={0};" mistake), but really this isn't nearly as strong an indictment as the original was. Frankly modern C++ is a huge step forward (though obviously traps remain), and this is as good evidence as we'll see.
