Well good C programmers will muck around with golbolt sometimes. Its interesting.

[@kayakMike1000]

Plain C has abstractions. We call 'em opaque pointers. You don't really give a rats ass how a FILE pointer works. You just know you can fgetc out of it or fputc into it.

like, why would you upload a video with many small texts with the quality of a potatoe?

[@kayakMike1000]

Why are you running business logic on a microcontroller? Seems kinda goofy to me...

[@Yoyo-ck9pm]

Why is c plus used in embedded ??

[@anirudhpraveen7410]

True

[@vyking1972]

What about rust?

[@kayakMike1000]

We didn't need a whole language with a shitty compiler to introduce a borrow checker that could have been done with a clever linter.
