The Government Uses Zero Days for “Offense”
Let's just keep writing operating systems and security-sensitive code in C.<p>I'm sure <i>this</i> time we'll have even <i>better</i> development practices. This time we'll do better code reviews. This time the static analysis tools will catch more problems.<p>If we all close our eyes and wish <i>really</i> hard we can avoid inconveniencing a few programmers, save a few CPU cycles, and keep using C. After all, the performance is totally worth a few heartbleeds now and again ya?
