C++ is very much a mixed bag but the new features in the C++11 standard do help a lot. The "auto" keyword and range-based for loops alone have decluttered my code quite a bit. The new smart pointers make me nervous after the auto_ptr fiasco but they seem to be working fine in my code so far. I'm looking forward to trying out the lambdas as soon as they hit in XCode.
