Yeah, I'm not sure the positions will die out, it just seems they were getting
fewer and fewer.  I agree that lower-level programming is still needed.  And
C++11 added some fairly interesting and useful features to the language and
standard library, which I think means C++ is still in demand.  I think C++ may
actually increase in popularity now that the standard includes some features
that make it more on par with newer languages like C# and Java.
