Are you sure that we did not settle on UTF8 because of C, ASCII assuming legacy code and null terminated strings?
With those in place, UTF8 makes sense. When stuck in a crappy situation, it may have been the best alternative?
As someone who does not work in marketing, it seems like ad development is more like a crap shoot than a science. There are some major successes, but it seems there are 100's of failures for each of those.
If you cannot see how it would benefit anyone, you do not have much of an imagination.
It could benefit marketers or anyone who wants to spread a message. This could include public service announcements or charity groups.
You may overestimate your own mental capacity.

All the software anyone needs has already been written.
I would bet that 99.9% of software that people will need in the next 100 years and could get utility from has not yet been written. Not to mention upgrades to the software that currently does exist, and is pretty crappy.
I took me back to last week when my Internet was down for 24 hours and I felt so helpless. All my devices useless. My iPad, my smartphone, my smart TV, my laptop... expensive decorations.
That is strange - all of those things work for me even if I have no internet.

As long as the tree is growing more than it is decomposing, don't they sequester carbon internally?
The cool kids may not like it, but they can thank Java or more specifically the JVM for Scala.
I assume your wife is not a bus driver, right? If so, your password repo might give her extra incentive.
Various black hats appreciate your dedication to C.

And this is a great demonstration of why people hate IT departments.

Actually, it should have started at 0 and gone to 15. That's how the greats did it. Someday I wish we would stop being so great.
