Very clever implementation techniques are required to implement this insanity correctly and usefully, not to mention that code written with this feature used and abused east and west is exceptionally exciting to debug.

C being what it is lacks support for multiple return values, so the notion that it is meaningful to pass pointers to memory objects into which any random function may write random values without having a clue where they point, has not been debunked as the sheer idiocy it really is.

Life is hard, and then you die.

I have long since given up dealing with people who hold idiotic opinions as if they had arrived at them through thinking about them.

The aspects you are willing to ignore are more important than the aspects you are willing to accept.

Suppose we blasted all politicians into space. Would the SETI project find even one of them?

Languages shape the way we think, or don't.
