alt Hacker News> Probably not something you’d encounter in practice
it's actually probably the most common footgun you'll encounter in practice: non-void functions with no return statements just keep executing past their end. ask me how i know.
compile with -Wreturn-type if you want to avoid such things...

C on the other hand puts an implicit `return 0` at the end, but only on the main function for some reason. Very weird.

Isn't -Wreturn-type enabled by default in both gcc and clang atleast for c++?
