This is an interesting statement and one I am curious about why it was said, if you wouldn't mind explaining why you think it would be a bad thing to still be using C++ in 10 years I would appreciate it.

I only ask because one of my favorite programming languages happens to be C which is 16 years older than I am. There is a common misconception that older languages are inferior to newer ones. This is generally wrong. Newer languages may have new features but older languages have their uses.

On a note unrelated to programming but life in general, just because something is newer does NOT mean it is better.
