@FFmpeg Would you be willing to hazard a guess as to how long C will be relevant

@HamledOnLine Many institutions like @librarycongress @BFI are specifically preserving FFmpeg's source code so that multimedia can be viewed by generations to come.
So in theory C will be relevant for millennia.

@FFmpeg @wholemars I was talking to my CS prof the other day about this and he said something like he would like to teach C but they teach Python because students could make projects quicker with it which gets them more interested

@FFmpeg Shouldn’t this have a NSFW disclaimer on it now that C is 18+ only?

@FFmpege root of all modern computing, but I also think that basic C++ lets a programmer create almost anything that needs to be created by software. With C++ and OOP a nontrivial project involves creating a custom language where the project’s objective just appears as if my magic.

@FFmpeg Yep. Started my career 35 years ago programming in C, am still doing it today (also C++), and I do believe that 20 years from now, C compilers will still be used. Probably the gcc!

@FFmpeg Don't forget Rust, some projects are better fitted to Rust

@FFmpeg @mikko I got this on recommendation from @davidbombal and Charles Severance back when they did their first video together. I had such a hard time finding it.

@FFmpeg "Contains all the clues necessary to program in C" is how I remember the book described when I learned C from it. It was terse one might say.

@FFmpeg It will always be relevant to write code that runs faster.
