      No no, we do

      time_t t = time(NULL);
      struct tm tm = *localtime(&t);
      tm.tm_year + 1900;
      

      Everyone writes their web server in plain C, right?

          And I hate it. Nice concept, but I don’t like neither, the language nor compiler.

              • The C compiler, when I parse a &(float) as (long) (it’s actually an evil floating point hack to run Quake III on an X86_64 CPU emulated in Scratch running on Spotifys Car Thing) (This would never be possible in Rust)

                  Yes, but

                  1. it’s unsafe, therefore not really Rust I’d argue
                  2. it doesn’t look as good
                  float Q_rsqrt(float number) {
                     long i;
                     float x2, y;
                     const float threehalfs = 1.5F;
                  
                     x2 = number * 0.5F;
                     y = number;
                  
                     i = * ( long * ) &y;
                     i = 0x5f3759df - ( i >> 1 );
                     y = * ( float * ) &i;
                  
                     y = y * ( threehalfs - ( x2 * y * y ) );
                     return y;
                  }

      Well, everyone who’s coding their websites is, yeah. Seeing how almost 10% of all websites use Elementor now and are built by people without an understanding of coding concepts, there are probably plenty of websites that don’t output their copyright year dynamically.
