so basically anything without manual memory management. I don't really see a good point in shilling particular names aside from discussions on performance impact of GC vs VM vs ownership

Not really manual memory management. I'd say C++'s memory management is automatic, just not safe.

Yes, a lot of programming languages are memory safe, maybe it would be faster to list memory unsafe popular languages.
