> So, what, you think that C can handle writing the language you write your web app and similar in but somehow it suddenly falls apart when transferring text back and forth across a network socket? Well, if you care about buffer overflows, and you are a human, as opposed to... no, actually, a computer can't statically check to ensure that your code has no buffer overflows, either. You need dynamic instrumentation to do that, which C doesn't give you, or at least not standard C, as opposed to some C-like language we can define, at which point we might as well go all the way and write in Rust or Python. > Anyway, I would write a library akin to the STL C, not C++. C doesn't have templates, which makes a Standard Template Library quite meaningless.
