I got into a discussion about that in another newsgroup and noticed that
C seems to have been a 20th-century language that is still used for
maintaining old programs and in the embedded niche, but that very few
languages or compilers seem to have been newly implemented in C in the
current century. The main counterexample I was able to find was LuaJIT.
