me: goto isn't bad to use in all cases, you just have to be careful with it
me, shortly thereafter: turns out my insurance doesn't cover pitchfork wounds
@typhlosion
me: everything is goto when you disassemble the bytecode deep enough.
@Fuego well of course, same if you're hand rolling assembly, but that doesn't stop people from complaining endlessly and needlessly about its use in higher level contexts
@typhlosion I feel strongly that complaining about HOW to code is people doing something else so they don't HAVE to code.
@Fuego in general i agree, but the opinions of others are worth at least a passing consideration if you're writing code you intend anyone else to view and comprehend at any point in the future
@typhlosion luckily when you write exploits for a living 99% of your control flow code isn't actually in the exploit - its the program you're exploiting, so the person who wants to understand your code has to reverse the target to sort it out 100% of the time.
Everything else I write are just my own tools ;)
