Don't worry, you aren't such a beacon neither... like if anybody could be here.

Simple C or "reduced/fixed syntax" C is the _less worse_ technical _compromise_
above machine code, for now.

Let me recall you something: there is no thing as good code, only code that
"suckless"...

In suckless context, this is near an insult. I don't need to loose too much of
my time with such human being, and I won't. Let them code amazing-ly
abstracted c++52 or python12 or viper7 code... but if it could be on msdn where
it's more appropriate...
