ctoshiningc··on Rethinking the C Time API

The Rust Evangelism Strike Force clearly hasn't been defunded by DOGE (yet). Respectfully, if you want to use Rust, just use Rust. If C doesn't suit you, you don't have to use it, and you don't have to make unreasonable demands of the standards body.

Another classic case of "if everyone does something differently than you do, it might be worth investigating why". The hubris to think that basic C time functions have been "broken" all this time, and that nobody noticed or cared. What a joke.
