Xe Iaso's blog posts poking fun at C(++) titled '"No way to prevent this" say users of only language where this regularly happens' has been quite busy this month.

Getting rid of C isn't the holy grail it might appear to be (Ubuntu has been working hard at rewriting sudo and coreutils in Rust and they have had plenty of bugs in the process), but I do hope the C projects will preemptively start fuzzing/running fil-C/invent new safety mechanisms for old code.
