- Baeocystin 10y agoEvery power tool I've ever used has a right way and a wrong way to use it, and the more powerful the tool, the greater the risk if you're 'holding it wrong'. That Jobs had a gaffe using the same words doesn't strike me as relevant. We are, after all, talking about tools and tooling, not a phone design sacrificed on the altar of fashion. Putting aside C specifically, is it possible to have a language that gives you the power you need, without the danger? I'm not completely sure it is.
