The headline doesn’t match the article. As it points out, C++20 has a very nice, and portable, time library. I quibble with the article here, though: in 2025, C++20 is widely available.

Indeed. The article should be retitled "C still useless in 2025, including time handling".

It would be incorrect, but it's already incorrect as what they're doing isn't really a struggle, so I guess the net result is neutral?

Damn, I didn't notice that C++20 added a whole bunch of new features to the std::chrono library! Nice!
