While I would be better served using a language like Go in most cases, C is just a lot more fun to me personally. Live, laugh, unsafe.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When I started programming a few years ago I began the journey with Python. After realizing that I hated it I decided to switch to C. Initially, I was having a great time making discord bots with the &lt;a href="https://github.com/cee-studio/orca"&gt;Orca&lt;/a&gt;, now &lt;a href="https://github.com/Cogamasters/concord"&gt;Concord&lt;/a&gt;, library. I was absolutely flying but eventually, I got skill issued. I just could not wrap my head around pointers and memory management. I ended up moving onto Java, Go, Rust, and Rust.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
