I think modern C and C++ compilers are very useful. Then again I know that these languages are full of huge pitfalls, so I know what I&#x27;m getting into, and when I make a mistake I blame myself, not the compilers.<p>I also use the <i>features of modern C&#x2F;C++ compilers</i> such as warnings (-Weverything on clang, then turn off those warnings I&#x27;m not interested in) and sanitizers (Undefined Behavior Sanitizer, Address Sanitizer).
