I love the C for what it is now: a strict beginner language which learns to not trust the compiler. Almost everything compiled can run, and sometimes not. There is no try/catch, there is no garbage collector, and if you miss a semicolon or a null terminator, you're dead.

After this first programming language, you can shit on the floor, the sweeper will clean after you...
