No pip freeze to lock the doom,
No tangled trees in darkened bloom,
No maintainers tricked by phishing spree —
In C I hold the memory key.
Through buffer, pointer, syscall roar,
I own the land, I own the shore;
Let Python’s spiders weave their scheme,
I’ll keep my ship rock-steady in C-stream.
I love this song, but it wouldn't be nearly as perfect without the slight hint of irony ("efficiently dangerous") and the SEGFAULT at the end. Things I feel "Write in C" is dearly missing.
Through buffer, pointer, syscall roar, I own the land, I own the shore; Let Python’s spiders weave their scheme, I’ll keep my ship rock-steady in C-stream.
