@cadey@pony.social Pretty surprised to see it being C++ instead of C.
And as a part of C++ committee, I can say with high confidence that we are working on making the language more safe.
I'm not sure if we can change the culture enough to stop people using practices that were known to be bad in the language for pretty much as long as it has existed though.

@ananas@scicomm.xyz I really do respect the work that's being put into C++, it must be nearly impossible. But really this kind of stuff will continue until it's a compiler error :/
