Garbage Collection

I read this today on the gcc list, courtesy of Mr. Stephan T
Lavavej: “Garbage collection is a morally bankrupt idea”.

I hear this sort of thing from time to time, but rarely so
succinctly. Who knew that programming included moral sub-problems?
And here I thought it was about engineering tradeoffs.
