Yes. We can blame the ipchains/iptables syntax on him ;)
Also, he used to poke fun at C++ (many older C devs did that) but more and more of them are coming around to C++. The last automobile systems programmers I worked with were switching to C++ as well. In ten years, C++ will be the new C.

I'm not coming around to C++, I assure you.
But I like measurements, even if they don't confirm my baises.
as long as you keep extern "C" in your api...
