Malloc Challenge
&gt;[libc4life] is aiming for simplicity and leverage; and it makes a real effort to get there by playing on C&#x27;s strengths, rather than just inventing yet another buggy Lisp.<p>Ouch, right in the feels, I&#x27;ve been working on <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;buildyourownlisp.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;buildyourownlisp.com</a> in my spare time. (EDIT: I was looking for a name for the repo, YABLisp it is.)<p>&gt; coding in C is a welcome therapy after seemingly wasting years exploring various ways of pretending the hidden complexity in my stack was someone else&#x27;s problem<p>I&#x27;ve noticed several older talented programmers express similar feelings. I was watching Casey Muratori&#x27;s Handmade Hero stream, where he writes a game in C from scratch, and he said, I don&#x27;t know who would watch this except aging C programmers.<p>I&#x27;m less than 30 but I already feel like an aging C programmer. Most OOP seems like a morass; I&#x27;ve switched to writing my own projects in C and my prototypes in C-like Python. But I wonder what hope there is for people like us in the industry, which seems to be moving ever further away from this type of programming.
