C strings are mere char arrays. The 'trailing \0' is a convention that you can follow and use the lib functions available (like strlen()...).
However you can easily handle them the way you want, like making a 'struct' of a char array and and 'int' for length. Then there are many 3rd party libs that handle Unicode etc.
This is what makes C differ from most other languages: in C you know the underlying structure of your data.

Isn’t it obvious that cutting China off from U.S. technology only pushes them to innovate and close the gap?
By helping China in this way (even if indirectly), maybe our man isn’t a Russian agent after all.

Submission + - Trump and RFK Jr. to Ban COVID-19 Vaccine 'Within Months' 4
ukoda writes: The Daily Beast has this worrying article:
The Trump administration will move to pull the COVID vaccine off the U.S. market “within months,” one of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s closest associates has told the Daily Beast.
Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a British cardiologist who has repeatedly claimed in the face of scientific consensus that the vaccines are more dangerous than the virus, told the Daily Beast that Kennedy’s stance is shared by “influential” members of President Donald Trump’s family. Like Kennedy himself, no Trumps hold any scientific qualifications.
Malhotra is a leading adviser to the controversial lobby group Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Action, which is seen as an external arm of Kennedy’s agenda as Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary.
He told the Beast that many of those closest to RFK Jr. have told him they “cannot understand” why the vaccine continues to be prescribed, and that a decision to remove the vaccine from the U.S. market pending further research will come “within months,” even if it is likely to cause “fear of chaos” and bring with it major legal ramifications.
Just glad I live in a country where the Covid vaccine is free and encouraged.

Most of Netflix made stuff is based on rinse & repeat (== boring) recipe.
And most of the time when I want to watch an "old" movie (meaning a classic not made by Netflix) they don't have it.
