- hackable_sand 2y agoI seriously doubt you and ivalm are having a hard time finding SWEs capable of memory management in C. Something is terribly wrong with your hiring practices. You just need to admit it's a "you" problem.
- mianos 2y agoOK, yep I get that. Excuse my cynicism. True, most of us system programmers could describe, in detail, malloc and free from scratch and write a basic malloc from scratch and then know why the basic K&RT whipped up malloc would actually be quite crappy when faced with real world use.
