Why do they write such important code in C to begin with? C is garbage
compared to C++. With C++ they wouldn't need to drop down to raw
pointers and would never have these problems.
(of course D guys will say use D, but lets be real, D isn't ready for
many obvious reasons)
As much as I love to hate C, it won't go away that easily:
- Being married with UNIX and its culture;
- Except for Windows, Android hybrid and RTOS, UNIX is everywhere nowadays
- The macho attitude that pertains C culture that programmers make no errors
This is one of those things that only will go away with a few
generations, but even the newer generations will need to maintain
running UNIX systems, thus the circle of doom keeps turning around.
