This tone is really inappropriate for HN

  Saying that C is more productive than <insert any language here> and this kind of thinking is making things worse for everyone: the poor bastards that have to debug the C code written by whoever believes the above, the security teams that are hopeless at securing said code and the SW development industry which already has a poor reputation. Recommending C for anything except Linux kernel development in 2019 is a public disservice. If more of us were appropriately harsh towards C, instead of finding excuses for it based on nostalgia the SW world would really be a better place.
