Well they don’t need Reddit to see who is seeding. But posting to Reddit can easily be done through Tor or proxies.

I once discovered that a very large org had AD configured in such a way that you could see “last seen at” timestamp for everyone profile in the company.

It would have been trivial to track everyone’s hours using this, which would likely have been unpopular.

To me what’s missing is a functional programming language that is statically typed and has an extreme emphasis on performance. C++ meets Haskell, but not terrible.

Zig, Odin and Jai are the main contenders.

I don’t think backward C compatibility is a good idea, since the C syntax has issues. Instead a transpilation tool from C could be built.

Quite funny, but I want people to advance the state of the art.

Does C++ / Java / Python really represent the high water mark of programming languages? I sure hope not…

What if Rust compiled to C? Wouldn’t that be a good way to support long tail platforms with low effort?
