True. Also, I love the C language and I don't get joy out of writing in many other languages. Additionally, I've wanted to make something like this just to learn more about how web servers work. I appreciate your thoughts.
love this sentiment. i cant really write in other languages. i try but always C ends up the choice :'). slow going but happy going
It is not about threat. It is about that life is too short to do things that are almost nonsense. Ofc everyone of us consider “nonsense” in different way.
I wish OP good luck. It was not sarcastic, I really do, and would like to hire him/her for the skills. But for mankind, this project is almost useless… I apologize if this sounds harsh.
That's fair. And I do agree. The use cases for something like this are very thin compared to what tools you can use out there instead, Django, Rails, Express, etc. All of which offer a much safer development experience. However, I still believe it will have a use case for some.
You are right. But I really think if you know C lang (all of Python or PHP people could be jealous :) - you can easily focus on something a little bit important/useful that will have impact on humanity.
You have a great potential if you can “see code” and have logical thinking deep inside. Not too many people have it.
Elon Musk said once that all those innovations are redeemed by the tremendous efforts of all the engineers. So I appreciate everyone who can do something.
Oh please, get off the weird high horse. I find this comment to be “nonsense”. What projects are you working on now, for mankind?
Why are we alive? To be useful. Not happy all the kind. Everyone wants to be useful.
I am not doing anything special but I do inform our community (“mankind”) for 25 years… And I feel useful because I am good at it.
“Mankind” can be a group of other people.
Edit: What people value the most? Compliments. So if you are useful and receive compliments, you will eventually be happy. But ofc you can be happy without being useful, for sure.

It doesn't sound 'harsh'. It sounds 'condescending', especially when paired with a completely insincere "I apologize...".

Jeez you must be a real joy to be around for the folks unfortunate enough to have to. /s
