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.

We can do better now.
already did: it's called Javascript

the performance of raw ASM, the elegance of Scheme, and the design principles of C++

all in a modern and obscenely powerful dynamic language with flawless semantics

and yet people insist on trash like:
- C: undefined shit
- Haskell: flavor of the week ``functional'' trash
- Perl: *^&%&)&*(&*(^^%^))_++_(*^&(^*()*)_
- Python: FIOC
- Ruby: LOL RAILS ROCKSTAR xD
- Lua: 1-based and completely crippled in every aspect
- PHP: babby's first web language
- Clojure: shitmeal with jvm clippings
- Rust: the name describes it quite well. probably the only honest language here
- Go: fuck yourself
