Comment on Undefined behavior in C is a reading error (2021)

Comments

It's quite ironic that a blog named 'keeping simple' is summarised by GPT as:

"In summary, the essay employs a hyperbolic tone to argue that the prevailing interpretation of undefined behavior has severely compromised the utility and stability of C. While it raises valid points about the implications of undefined behavior, the dramatic language and sweeping claims might make the situation appear more catastrophic than is universally agreed upon."

I know it's bad form to quote GPT, but I could not say this better.

As someone who writes C and C++ every day of the week I feel I just wasted 30 minutes of my life reading it and the arguments.
