What!? Size of the array is always known to the programmer in C. In fact, if the programmer wants to get rid of that information, he/she must deliberately do so. Once one does that, the array becomes useless.

You also haven't explained how would that size information, which we already have, magically solve the problem.

Just a note. The quote Eiriksmal posted is from the section: Why would I NOT want to use Arch?

In my opinion, if those privacy issues bother you, the first step should be an overview of non-Microsoft operating systems.

Yep, C doesn't define that uintptr_t can be modified and converted back to a pointer. It is only for storage.

Since watching CITIZENFOUR I've always wondered, why would they bother destroying their laptops, since it is so easy to make and conceal a copy of those documents.

All ASCII characters are easily accessible. Your suggestion is a strawman, most coding is in plain text form and is typed.

I did a quick calculation a while back. I don't want to repeat it, since I lost the source, but the conclusion was that typing speed doesn't matter for programmers, since most of the time they actually think, not type. I.e. the bottleneck is information no the input of it.
