Garbage collection is still allowed, and technically JIT languages are still compiled so it really isn't that restrictive

every single language (except Vlang of course) is memory safe if you program it perfectly.

Very, very few humans are capable of doing that, especially with C.

Are these families somehow more meritorious than the rest of the population?

lacking multi-generational connections is still a pretty rosy picture of disadvantage. Statistically "unmeritorious" parents are far more likely to have their child suffer from malnutrition due to lack of money and neglect due to the parents working 2 jobs or having substance abuse issues. If the country has private schools, they won't have access to them and due to living in a low-wealth area their public schools will have a disproportionately high amount of other neglected and abused kids which makes everything harder.

to be honest, 80% of their customers probably don't even know what an emulator is and don't follow news about nintendo

can't wait for gun companies to start advertising their guns as "intelligent" and "highly safe"

pretty simple. [the video site] sees how popular tiktok is and wants to get a slice of that "short format" pie. It incentivizes content creators to make content that fits the format by promoting it on the algorithm. If there is a shortage of content in that format (and for that type of audience), anything semi-decent will do, eg. highlights from longer videos. As the algorithm needs to fill that quota of videos somehow
