I haven't looked into the newest C++. In theory, they might have added something helpful in the past years.
I guess you could say that the latest version of C++ allows you to write code that is a little bit less verbose than before. C++ itself won't really change drastically because of backwards compatibility. In my opinion it is not a suitable language for hobbyists, as you need to spend a lot of time with it (measured in years) to become proficient... and basically, if you don't use C++ on a regular basis, there are details that are easy to forget. D has some of those issues too, but D can be used more like a high level language.
