Do you know that StackOverflow does not tolerate abuse and there is a flag option to automatically review any comment or post. In the rare case that doesn't work out you can directly contact moderators or developers who will actually respond. No community is perfect and you should really consider that options if you were offended. I have yet to see any ridicule that wasn't removed in 15 minutes or less.
Article contains ad hominem and personal opinions. Author is/was personally offended by certain events and his blog provides a source of relief for his distress.
I would comment on every specific paragraph, but the "arguments" are simply absurd.
This kind of post truly deserves to not be read.
I ran it over a couple of old finished projects and it found a problem in each one. Awesome.
Unfortunately it misses a class of errors memcpy would do,( similar to heartbleed ) , if copy size is determined at runtime.
Also the premise that the energy has to be concentrated to a certain are for the rocket to work is wrong. You can have as much energy on as large area as you want without reaching the critical mass and collapsing into a black hole. The rocket can be of any size to work.
Even so, a black hole is the perfect source of energy. Converting mass into energy without loss via hawking radiation. And the mass is collected when moving trough interstellar medium. Such micro black hole( it has to be small to radiate fast enough ) would still weight a lot and moving it would be difficult, but not impossible.
Any suggestions for a similar tool?

That is simply wrong. It is called relativity for a reason. An object might be traveling arbitrarily fast, but in its reference frame it is not moving.
That pretty much invalidates that part of the article.

Use this and avoid it( and the second array as well ):
char * a[] = { "%d\n" , "Fizz\n" , "Buzz\n" , "FizzBuzz\n" } ;
