why C is shit

int a = 0xFFFFFFFF;
*( (char *) &a ) = 0x0F;

is the only way to do it in C. You can't simply go (char) a = 0x0F; because it's ``not a valid lvalue.'' Put C back where it belongs, in the garbage. It was a DSL for building Unix no wonder that's such shit too. We can do better now.

The thing about C is: if you ended up cut off your own arm with it, you're the one who cut off your own arm.
