14:11 pdurbin "It's because C is so damn successful as an abstraction over the underlying machine and making that high level, it's made most low level languages irrelevant. C is that good at what it does." -- http://damienkatz.net/2013/01/the_unreasonable_effectiveness_of_c.html
14:12 pdurbin and a nice follow up: http://damienkatz.net/2013/01/follow_up_to_the_unreasonable.html
15:30 atz yeah, i really like that post
16:33 pdurbin not that I'm doing anything so low level :)
16:39 pdurbin some months ago the guy who coded up zeromq said he wished he had picked C instead of C++
16:39 pdurbin that was my take on it anyway
16:39 pdurbin crimsonfubot: lucky zeromq c vs. c++
16:39 crimsonfubot pdurbin: http://www.250bpm.com/blog:4
16:40 pdurbin yeah. that. " Why should I have written ZeroMQ in C, not C++ (part I)"
16:42 pdurbin I should read part II some day: http://www.250bpm.com/blog:8
