Sure there is. But never be blinded, Linux is very performant and rock solid from an end user's viewpoint. Sometimes it helps putting things into perspective.

Seatbelts and helmets are also a nuisance, maybe we should get rid of them, that is my perspective.

The difference being that my links have to do with damage C keeps bringing into IT and the respective monetary losses.

They are not random, only to those that don't care about improving the quality of our eco-system.

Software liability couldn't come soon enough.

What do you think are the monetary losses by unmaintainable software, resulting in bad and extremely unsafe practices (not related to memory, but...) like in my link? What do you think are the monetary losses from developers going mentally ill because they don't understand and don't like the shit they're doing?
