I don't think you understand what a NIMBY is. They're fine with housing developments, halfway houses, public works projects, etc as long as they are "not in their backyard". Everything you're saying is 100% compatib

California City was largely a fraud. There are a dozen planned cities in California that succeeded to counter the CC story. Irvine, CA would be a prime example.

Fair point, I apologize for the petty comments. They were unnecessary. I sometimes have a low bar for intentional contrarianism/obtuseness at the expense of useful discourse.

Not that I can speak for this specific story, as I have no firsthand testimony, but Mitnick is a notorious embellisher, downplayer and (anecdotally) liar.

You're really pettyfogging simply to be contrarian. C is a language with a large and active community, and is still the most common/popular language in its fields. Algol-68 and Fortran are not. It has nothing to do with age of the

C# is a common choice for emulators, actually. It probably goes C/C++ (it's really hard to disambiguate the two, in this case; few codebases are pure either way) then Rust (for hobby emulators, it's probably third or fourth f

You can keep telling yourself that just like the Vancouverites did 20 years ago. The industry statistics show otherwise. I'm glad Georgia's economy has seen a positive result from the subsidies, however.

I wonder why that's something worth wondering about. Maybe they like it? It's a perfectly reasonable systems language, even if it's not my personal favorite. It might be something questionable if they used Fortran or Algol-68

No, the differences are purely superficial. Which is why they don't pool together. Your argument is like saying Lutherans and Episcopalians aren't both Protestants because they disagree on the meaning of the trinity, despite agr
