Quote:I don't see any specific programming language being beneficial in security applications. That's like me making a shitty PB&J and blaming the breadmakers for it.

I don't see any knife being better at cutting bread, so I just use my katana.

I'd phrase it this way: Given a random programmer who knows C and, say, Python equally well, it will take the programmer less time to produce a program with the same amount of bugs and security flaws with Python than with C.

You _can_ cut your bread with a katana, but J. Random Hacker won't be able to without cutting a lot of non-bread first.
