Hm, where did I say anything about FP?

As for managed code, it's being used with huge success in a lot of places (not in OS-es or drivers, yes) but that's quite the huge topic by itself.

I never implied you did, they are merely one of the two major major groups of programmers I see consistently deriding C based infrastructure that presumably enables their paychecks to a large extent.

I'm not defending C, I'm merely sneering at its noisy detractors who spend more time complaining about it than supplanting it.
