On: Is Java more secure than C?

[kabdib]

It's incredibly easy to write buffer overruns in C that open up security holes.

Not that JVMs are immune, it's just harder.

That said, I far prefer writing in C/C++ to doing anything in Java.

Why's that? Enjoy pointer arithmetic that much?

Never found pointer arithmetic hard. I honestly don't know what the big deal is.

Template metaprogramming can go straight to hell, though . . . :0
