Write the code and it just works.  That’s what I love about managed programming languages and C# in particular.  Sure, my code may have logic errors that I need to debug.  But I am no longer spending hours needlessly chasing pointer-to-pointer bugs and memory leaks found in C++, for example.  With managed code, the focus is on business processes and logic, not programming language behavior and side-effects.
