About a month ago, I entered into a small "language contest" that was set to prove that no "newschool" language (Rust, Zig, Nim, etc) is ready to replace C in the embedded field.
The deadline was about 10 days ago, and according to the original technical evaluation criteria, my Free Pascal solution won, but got disqualified, because "we already know, Pascal could not replace C".
Programming languages rise and fall, human stupidity remains. I rest my case.
