C CONSTRUCTS THAT STILL DON'T WORK IN C++ — AND A FEW THAT CHANGED

Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter

C and C++ maintain distinct object models, requiring developers to focus on specific standards (C23 or C++20) for code validity, and while some features align, memory management using C functions like malloc remains risky in C++. Effective cross-language development demands isolating C-specific features and translating them into robust C++ types to guarantee safety and clear ownership.
