Literally nophono language
Learn a real language like Java, C++, C# or Rust

just learn java and c#. easily the most transferable skills in software and by far the easiest to learn, c is baroque and frankly an awful language to work with

Java and C# teach you how the runtime system, C teaches you the operating system, no need to directly look into <syscallname> for <systemname> when you encounter a NEED to know it for a certain task, if you do not want to learn the operating system fine, go learn a higher level, non segfaulting language, but my claim is that for learning SYSTEMS-level programming, go learn C

>this nigga hating EVERYTHING π
'hate'? no, i'm just subtracting down what exists (that which i listed) down from the inferred use-case of the author, systems programming, i could've been more concise and said x isnt a systems language, y isnt a SUITABLE systems language, but i probably went a bit overboard in my detail, looking back
Certain languges exist for certain tasks, and Java/C# is a applications language, lisp/R is a science language, java/typescript is a web language etc…

>>29491While I would say that objectively C is a top choice, you are pretending that nothing else has utility. If you learn python purely as a scripting language or a bridger its pretty great
