Write in C – Let it Be | Dark Hacker News

No pip freeze to lock the doom, No tangled trees in darkened bloom, No maintainers tricked by phishing spree — In C I hold the memory key.

Through buffer, pointer, syscall roar, I own the land, I own the shore; Let Python’s spiders weave their scheme, I’ll keep my ship rock-steady in C-stream.

When Rust was receiving a lot of press I did the same with the Spam song but changed Spam to Rust. Lovely Rust! Wonderful Rust!

I love this song, but it wouldn't be nearly as perfect without the slight hint of irony ("efficiently dangerous") and the SEGFAULT at the end. Things I feel "Write in C" is dearly missing.

> If you've just spent nearly 30 hours

I was singing along and this was too many syllables. I guess "Spent nearly 30 hours" is all that fits.

I don't get it. This guy had bugs in his Pascal code, and he thinks moving to C is going to make his life easier?

I mean, that's one way to see fewer errors: If a tree writes off the end of an array in the forest, is there actually a bug?

(Yes. Yes there's still a bug.)
