MIML

Machine Independent Machine Language. AKA C.

Somehow I've managed to come across this acronymn twice today from independent sources. I still find it a beautifully accurate description of both C's greatest strength, and it's greatest weakness.

Still, somehow regardless of how many new languages I learn, I still seem to have a soft spot for C --- it is a remarkably elegant MIML.
