Just my curiosity, I've always been intersted in such question: are devs still writing extensions in C, I mean type in C code? Aren't they using some translator or IDE which at lest hides the brackets and semicolons? I personally don't have problems with understanding low-level concepts of programming, but I find it pretty hard to see through the mangroves of brackets, asterisks and Co.
