C Programming Language

Welcome to the C community!

C is quirky, flawed, and an enormous success.
... When I read commentary about suggestions for where C should go, I often think back and give thanks that it wasn't developed under the advice of a worldwide crowd.
... The only way to learn a new programming language is by writing programs in it.

This is a flippant statement, honestly, as it disregards the premise of the discussion. It’s memory safety.

You're completely ignoring even the argument you're supposedly commenting,let alone the point it makes. You're parroting cliches while purposely turning a blind eye to the point made in the blog that yes C can be memory safe. Likewise, Rust also has CVEs due to memory safety bugs. So, beyond these cliches, what exactly are you trying to argue?
