Stop casting the return of malloc.

I agree, it's also better to use a language from the current century that lets you get work done instead of micromanaging memory.

If you use C for anything but systems programming that take actual advantage of its features in 2017, you're trying too hard.

Off the top of my head I could only think Go and Trumpscript, mind giving non-bloated examples?

Fuck off.

Reminder to all good gentlemen to call your variables things like "class" and "public" where sensible, and implicitly cast where sensible.

>>59103959
It's completely unnecessary unless you're using C++, and you shouldn't be using malloc in C++ anyway

the persistence of unsafe langauges like C is why software """engineering""" will never be considered real engineering

Moore's Law is pretty much done. Intel was stuck on 14nm so long that AMD caught up. The only way to make faster programs is to micro-optimize every machine instruction. Assembly is the language of the future.

Bridges can be unsafe if they aren't built right, should they be outlawed too?

>>59104167
real engineers (eg the people who make bridges in first world countries) take safety seriously

And real c engineers take memory safety seriously, it isn't their fault if some retard kid can't figure it out

>>59104387
if they were serious about it they wouldn't use a language that is inherently unsafe

>>59104410
C is perfectly safe

>who casts the return of malloc in 2017?

It's required in C++ to prevent a type-mismatch error.

>>59104410
It is safe though, not know how to use it properly is unsafe

Spoken like a true armchair developer who's likely never written more than a hello world-tier program in assembly.

The future lies in increasingly better compilers, better algorithms, better language, and maybe faster storage as well. Assembly is a terrible idea for any piece of modern software; even if you can somehow end up with a faster product than a good compiler will generate (you more than likely won't), you'll still have an impossible to maintain mess that over-complicates simple problems a higher level language will articulate easily, and also keep safer from mistakes..
