John McCarthy was once asked “how does it feel to have designed the greatest programming language ever”, to which McCarthy replied “I don’t know, you’ll have to ask Bjarne Stroustrup” 🔥 🔥 🔥
.....Therefore, if the very dangerous & unfair “As-If rule“ is not completely terminated as part of C++23, I will be forced to unequivocally VETO the Standard when sent to the very beautiful ISO in Geneva. Take back @cppNOW. Thank you!
The “As-If rule“, which is a liability shielding gift from the Committee to “Big Compiler” (the only language that has it - algorithmic welfare!), is a serious threat to our Security & Safety. Our Language can never be safe & secure if we allow it to stand........................
Extraordinary claims demand extraordinary proof. Compilers make the extraordinary claim that despite sky-high motivation and plenty of opportunity, they did NOT try to misinterpret my program’s intent. Anything is POSSIBLE, but I'd need extraordinary proof to believe it.
Should C++ concede to @ziglang?

For the good of our Language we must prevail!
In certain processes, there were more instructions executed than instructions retired, and in big numbers. Does that not really matter? Unsuspecting performance counters. Such egregious speculation. We will win!
The recent statement by UBSan on the correctness of my code was highly inaccurate, in that there was massive 10x programming—including code which should Do What I Mean.
Therefore, effective immediately, UBSan has been terminated.
The Rust Language didn’t want to have me get a Safety WIN, prior to the compilation, so instead static analysis came out five days after the program crashed – As I’ve said all along!
