Did I say C didn’t have problems? Or did a say it’s not a problem that C might allow you to do unsafe things?

I think so?

Do you know what “because” in that sentence means?

Edit: Nah, that’s OK. Just downvote and scamper on. Make HN more like Reddit, that’s what this place needs!

Well I took it to mean that because you think it treats you as a "big boy" you don't think it has problems.

Oh and I have no idea how to downvote on HN. Not that I care, but I don't see any downvote buttons.
