I fail to understand / find the gist of this article.

Article describes the technical aspects of the bug, how it got handled by different vendors...AI position on it...

But, one would always ask themselves, why did the author write this article? That part hasn't been clear to me even after going through much of the article.

Aren't C++ templates the desktop version of macros?

Unless I am mistaken macros have been around for ages and are available in many many languages.

Is this possible that you could give me some example project, for instance, that makes of C imperatively?

Probably depends on at what level you see things. If you visit and probably live in Japan, then you develop the concept of 'cryptocurrency'. You then subsequently develop intellectual property around the 'concept' of 'cryptocurrency'.

Is this really 'imperative' programming? I'd say not but depending on at what level you see things, then it could be.

At project level, then it's purely functional.

If I write my code primarily in a way that is simply supposed to achieve functionality then it's by definition functional programming.

Regardless of the language used!

AFAIK, I could be wrong or ill informed about this.

But, Rust does indeed embedded extra code for much of the functionality that it adds ontop of what C/C++ has.

This obviously has a performance hit. Might not be observable on a desktop application but it will be evident on server applications.

AFAIK, functional programming is programming that doesn't modify state.

And, if all you're doing is taking material from real life and uploading into computers, then you're not modifying state at all.

Problem still persists where OBS cannot capture it's own window.
