I will build a great std::barrier to keep JavaScript programmers out, and I will make @BrendanEich pay for that std::barrier.

John McCarthy was once asked “how does it feel to have designed the greatest programming language ever”, to which McCarthy replied “I don’t know, you’ll have to ask Bjarne Stroustrup” 🔥 🔥 🔥

The “As-If rule“, which is a liability shielding gift from the Committee to “Big Compiler” (the only language that has it - algorithmic welfare!), is a serious threat to our Security & Safety. Our Language can never be safe & secure if we allow it to stand........................

.....Therefore, if the very dangerous & unfair “As-If rule“ is not completely terminated as part of C++23, I will be forced to unequivocally VETO the Standard when sent to the very beautiful ISO in Geneva. Take back @cppNOW. Thank you!

Extraordinary claims demand extraordinary proof. Compilers make the extraordinary claim that despite sky-high motivation and plenty of opportunity, they did NOT try to misinterpret my program’s intent. Anything is POSSIBLE, but I'd need extraordinary proof to believe it.

In certain processes, there were more instructions executed than instructions retired, and in big numbers. Does that not really matter? Unsuspecting performance counters. Such egregious speculation. We will win!

The recent statement by UBSan on the correctness of my code was highly inaccurate, in that there was massive 10x programming—including code which should Do What I Mean.
Therefore, effective immediately, UBSan has been terminated.

My program only crashed in the eyes of the FAKE CORRECTNESS STANDARD. I concede NOTHING! We have a long way to go. This was a RIGGED COMPILATION!
