@p4 @danielleigh @lina which is especially funny coming from C programmers because... there's barely anything to learn, it's not a difficult language, and "experienced" C programmers aren't particularly good at avoiding the footguns that beginners also encounter.

@danielleigh @delroth @p4 @lina imho, Rust > C > C++. sincerely, |
@delroth @p4 @lina C isn't a difficult language ... to memorize. In actual use the C++ that C programmers hate so much is massively simpler (as is Rust and every other higher level language.) Which isn't to say C++ is good, it inherits all of C's flaws and adds some, but many C programmers seem to take pride in using the least capable tool that is at all practical in what feels like a mix of elitism and toxic masculinity.
