Great talk, and a satisfying introspective side to Meyers compared to his usual "Meyers explains it all" talks and books (which frankly, have been controversial in some respects in glossing over the "tool use" complexity to enable readers/viewers to reach the "tool application" side of C++). That said, you can never win... a couple of the C++ examples in this talk could have used a few extra words of explanation and rationale, but he erred on the side of not losing the audience, which is good.
