(and sometimes newer)

My God man, say it louder for the folks in the back. A 21 year old answer, heck even an 8 year old answer like OP said, might not STILL be the best answer in the current age. Technology evolves, new languages get invented, old languages gain some new features, and all of that happens at a rapid pace.

I get super dismayed using SO and seeing the top answer predates Rust. (Note I don't mean to say Rust is always the answer, but that Rust is already 13 years old. Things change.)
