C++ Sucks

C++ is a horrible language. It's made more horrible by the fact that a lot of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it's much much easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Quite frankly, even if the choice of C were to do *nothing* but keep the C++ programmers out, that in itself would be a huge reason to use C.

I don't see how the C standard library is so bad.
My no.1 beef with C and the standard library are related to strings.

Shit, if all they did was get rid of null-terminated strings and made functions like strncpy the only choice, I'd be happy.

This, however, will never happen due to backwards compatibility. The main reason why C is still around is because of inertia: everything else can talk to it.
