I need these people to talk to the C folks because SO MANY people in C-land are shooters for nul-terminated strings, and they are THE MOST crapshoot GARBAGE in C. But these two get it, BOTH the C lover and the C hater directly describe why the implicit-malloc, 0-terminated, threading-awful, and other such things in the standard library are AWFUL.

(I also had this issue which is why I proposed SIZED thread attributes, but the Committee blew them all up and wanted null-terminated string ones only. So, even though these two people get it, other C people are EXTREMELY brain-poisoned on this subject and will die with their null-terminated strings despite the various issues that come with them. It's refreshing that even the younger C programmers understand how dogshit null-terminated is, though!)
