@dibblego @jonsterling @zooko @nuttycom Writing OpenSSL in a language, *any* language, other than C eliminates a whole class of problems.

@djspiewak @dibblego @jonsterling @zooko @nuttycom that sort of library needs to be callable from other langs. Still hard to beat C there.

@raphscallion @djspiewak @jonsterling @zooko @nuttycom Bullshizzles.

@dibblego @djspiewak @jonsterling @zooko @nuttycom on which point?

@raphscallion @djspiewak @jonsterling @zooko @nuttycom I once called a C function from Haskell. It was as easy as calling it from C.

@dibblego @djspiewak @jonsterling @zooko @nuttycom yeah, the issue is generally in going the other way.

@raphscallion @djspiewak @jonsterling @zooko @nuttycom Why would I ever so such an inane thing? I do compositional programming only.

@dibblego @djspiewak @jonsterling @zooko @nuttycom application in lang X wants to call library in lang Y. C is generally the best Y.
