in this case, it is not true. The segmentation fault is the arch nemesis of anyone who has ever attempted to program a computer, without hiding behind the convenience of high level languages. If you've never encountered it, you've never known the horrors that lurk behind the screen, waiting to drive you into madness. I can only imagine myself, sitting at a campfire in the post-apocalyptic ruins of this civilization, telling the younglings about this vile beast, feasting on the time and sanity of innocent programmers, preying on unexpecting processes and rubbing it into the faces of those who tried to protect them with those two horrible, panic inducing words: segmentation fault, sometimes accompanied by the beast's number: signal 11. Entire churches have been devoted to saving humanity from this unholy encounter by praying the mantra: thou shalt not follow the nǘ̶͕̺̓l̴͓̙̩̆̃́l pointer, for c̵͇͇̚h̸̪̏̀ͅå̴͔̥o̴̺̙͆̅s̵̝̓̉ ̶̢̚ǎ̵͈̪n̵̢̽ḑ̸͔͑ ̵͎͝ṁ̴͙̟͝ȁ̵̗ḏ̴̢͘n̶̼̽̔ͅḛ̶̞͝s̴̪̘̃ś̶͓̬̒ await t̵̩͗͜h̶̤̞̏̕ee at its̵͎̙̕ end.
