The ad in the article is pretty obviously an ad to anyone that can read the words, "New Series. Start Watching".
Ads like these that randomly display during idle is hardly what I consider invasive.
Hopefully OP's sister gets her mental health under control, but I wouldn't immediately raise pitch forks to ban an entire industry vital to the economy and business-consumer communication.
<fn> <generic> <name>(<type/argument>[:] <type/argument> [(->/:) type]
[import/use/using] (<package>[/|:|::|.]<type> | "file") (ok header files are a relic of the past I have to admit that)
I tried writing zig and as someone who has pretty much written in every commonly used language it just felt different enough where I kept having to look up the syntax.
the most odd one probably being 'const expected = [_]u32{ 123, 67, 89, 99 };'
and the 2nd most being the word 'try' instead of just ?
the 3rd one would be the imports
and `try std.fs.File.stdout().writeAll("hello world!\n");` is not really convincing either for a basic print.
That has got to be a joke. It's like they're mocking their customers. I can't stop laughing at the sight of the guy they somehow convinced to model this thing in their promotional photo.

> The source code for word formation is in the files w*.c. The process is controlled by the function wordil (word index and length) and the table state. Rows of state correspond to 10 states; columns to 9 character classes. Each table entry is a (new state, function) pair. Starting at state S, a sentence is scanned from left to right one character at a time; the table entry corresponding to the current state and character class is applied.I'm already lost, and this is the first example.
