@kurtseifried @kees @KernelRecipes i mean that or... We can also reclassify the problem from "a bug/programming mistake" to "being forced to use an unergonomic tool".

I refuse to let a tablesaw without sawstop technology in my workshop. Why should we not analyze our tools the same way?

@Di4na Ergonomics is how I like framing the conversation. A tool having fewer sharp edges is a good thing, and a tool which increases developer productivity is a good thing.

C is fun. There’s a certain challenge to it which makes it rewarding.

However, I’m glad people have been revisiting compiled langs to make them more ergonomic. I want to write a program and spend time doing a thing rather then spend time tweaking code to getting it working.
