I genuinely thought this was ironic. Was it not? I cannot understand why anyone would do this.

It took millennia of human torment to come to the conclusion that political power should be distributed, because it is a human right. Wealth similarly compels actions, so billionaire-level wealth is inherently unjust.

We've completely circled back to feudalism, just wrapped in a cardboard box with ad that says 'freedom'. And then you've got doofuses protesting in favor?

I don't care if there are rich people, but one person controlling the same amount of wealth as hundreds of millions of people is just wrong.

Edit: millions of people not billions

A real-world and literal demonstration of Poe's Law.

Pleasingly wiggly :)

8690 with a non-zero flip probability has a fun little effect I call "whoomph"

I remember reading some crank on slashdot decades ago seriously claiming that Windows was not an operating system. This type of argument hasn’t gotten any more intelligent since.

Following up, I see that's not really what the author was trying to say: it's that for a growing number of purposes, like gluing together two languages that aren't C, that the C ABI is still dominating things where the C language shouldn't even be involved.

Write clickbait, get kneejerk. I guess some other things are at least as old as C.
