"The Unreasonable Effectiveness of C"
http://damienkatz.net/2013/01/the_unreasonable_effectiveness_of_c.html
"For years I've tried my damnedest to get away from
C. Too simple, too many details to manage, too old
and crufty, too low level. I've had intense and
torrid love affairs with Java, C++, and Erlang. I've
built things I'm proud of with all of them, and yet
each has broken my heart. They've made promises they
couldn't keep, created cultures that focus on the
wrong things, and made devastating tradeoffs that
eventually make you suffer painfully. And I keep
crawling back to C."
Nice article from 2013.
