C++ people: "Compatibility with C is a BIG DEAL and we can't break it without an EXTREMELY good reason and that's why we're going to not do any of this work to make C things better so that people can keep compiling C."

Also C++ people: "why do people keep calling it C/C++?????"

"C/C++ is not a real language and it pisses me off when they don't separate them"

dear sibling in Christ half of the people training for C++ explicitly went to C shops and sold it as "you only have to make a few small changes and then incrementally improve"

Just to be clear, this is NOT the number of submissions we receive by month. This is the number of people we've had to ban by month. Prior to late 2022, that was mostly plagiarism. Now it's machine-generated submissions.

Re AI art and writing...it's just theft. Period. And tech bros *want* the kind of doubt about the possibility of pushing back and the sense of inevitability I'm seeing expressed. But this is about *marketing a product* and you do the work for them with some of these posts.

@steveklabnik replied to a tweet by @steveklabnik:

that said this 'downplaying of memory safety because other kinds of safety exists' rhetoric is

1. true
