Where someone should be a C pro, not the local JS guy that dabbles in C and can "read" it. Doesn't hurt to know the internals, but one's time's limited and bet

Where someone should be a C pro, not the local JS guy that dabbles in C and can "read" it. Doesn't hurt to know the internals, but one's time's limited and better spent on other endeavors. If I wouldn't be doing embedded I wouldn't touch C with a 3m pole, nor would I need to :) In fact my life's mostly C free nowadays and I'm quite pleased with that.
