>C is the last language I would choose in a race to a viable service.

And yet, the majority of services the world relies on everyday, from OSes and drivers, to Google search, NASA code, medical devices, etc are written in C/C++.


Too bad no one can deploy linux servers because of all the segfaults.

I experienced quite a few kernel panics in the earlier days... Generally from poor drivers, but just the same.
