A Universal I/O Abstraction for C++ (2020)

Agreed, I keep reaching for C++, because of the dependency many ecosystems have.

Chromium is a good example actually, I bet they would rather follow the "Custom C++ libraries" and "Hardware mitigations" than the Firefox approach.

Apple did something similar recently, their iBoot firmware uses a custom safe C dialect.

Thanks, I'd not seen that page before.

I'll point to this next time this topic crops up.
