I wish there was some sort of island of safe haven country setup by compiler developers where C didn't have problems with memory safety.

Why is politics the only domain where HN'ers think they can make the domain's problems disappear entirely by moving it physically to an island? It's inane.

You're HN'er yourself.

To the downvoters let me explain what I meant. jancsika is an HN'er as we all are. But jancsika is on here trying to say the community as a whole is a bunch of arrogant idiots. This annoying type of comment where you make yourself seem smart by putting down the entire community has become common in this community. I see it more and more often on here.
