The problem with the English language
Mar 13, 2005
The problem with the English language, and really all natural languages of which I'm aware (a small number), is that it doesn't do automatic memory management, with the result that you've generally got all these NULL pointers floating around getting dereferenced one after the other—the kind of thing that ought to get caught at compile time. Of course the longer you live the greater the odds that at some point not only will your sentence segfault, but also actually dump core, and it's adult diapers from then on out.
Sad really.

There's nothing that adding a little malloc to the english language could fix.
