&gt; I disagree, all languages have the potential to be misused by poor programmers and it&#x27;s the developer who is the source of the bug.<p>We can easily fix tools and processes, we will never fix people. Sure, all languages
allow to create bugs, but some orders of magnitude more then others.<p>&gt; kernel is written in C and is the most successful&#x2F;widely used piece of software<p>end every release finds bugs in filesystem drivers, and buffer overflows and security issues and breaks display drivers. Seriously think of all the things
kernel developers could do if they didn&#x27;t waste years of work on tracking invalid pointers and off-by-one errors. Over and over and over again.
