Scott Meyers was the go-to reference for "expert" C++ knowledge for over twenty years, he retired after his C++14 books came out and a mere two years later he couldn't even keep up with the language to make technical corrections.

C++ is a large, intricate language with features that interact in complex and subtle ways, and I no longer trust myself to keep all the relevant facts in mind. As a result, all I can do is thank you for your bug report, because I no longer plan to update my books to incorporate technical corrections. Lacking the ability to fairly evaluate whether a bug report is valid, I think this is the only responsible course of action.

Heck, even C++ is getting out of hand for Herb Sutter. He might say "ISO C++ is the best tool in the world today to write the programs I want and need", but then he also says "My goal (with cppfront) is to explore whether there's a way we can evolve C++ itself to become 10x simpler, safer, and more toolable."
