Yeah, I think they're trying to say "Stop writing in C and C++, blockheads!" but in a more diplomatic tone. Most of the common languages today are memory-safe. Really, which ones aren't? C and C++ are the big ones. I guess throw Pascal in there if you don't use pointers correctly. Assembly lets you make indirect accesses anywhere in your allocated memory. Perl lets you leak memory if you create circular structures and then lose references to them. But Java, JavaScript, Go, Python, Ruby, etc. don't let you trample all over memory the way C and C++ let you. You can corrupt memory if you really want to, e.g. in Python by using ctypes to cast integers to pointers, but it takes a lot of effort.
