Fundamental blocks of lot of platforms are written in C or C++ with bit of assembler. Apple has done lot of it in Objective-C. Rest like Fortran, Ada, Rust, Go, Erlang, Haskell, Lisp matter only narrowly/locally. But consider what I use right now? Google groups.

Shareholders of product do not think like that ... for them to have cheaper, faster and more reliable maintenance team is higher priority. Otherwise there will be syndrome of "legacy that may not be touched" and good products simply degrade and die because of upkeep being too expensive. > So for PC's, you absolutely want to be able to conduct your integer > arithmetic as fast as possible without any unnecessary checking, traps, > exceptions, or other hinders in the flow. I don't want as rule. It is maybe in 5% of code base where micro-optimizations may give few percents of advantage and there I expect every trick to be commented with performance issue ID. I do reject removal of #ifdef NDEBUG #error "defining NDEBUG without author's permission not allowed"
