Other resources I like:

- Eskil Steenberg’s “How I program C” (https://youtu.be/443UNeGrFoM). Long and definitely a bit controversial in parts, but I find myself agreeing with most of it.

- CoreFoundation’s create rule (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5718415/corefoundation-o...). I’m definitely biased but I strongly prefer this to OP’s “you declare it you free it” rule.
