@chikim @kevinrj @vick21 @JonathanMosen Yep because #ADA is supposed to also protect the disclosure rights and privacy of #disabled people, but airlines have already found a way to abuse this. This is exactly why we need to keep the issue about the impact of the discrimination and steer away from all the rest of the excuses and whining from some drivers and others.

How CS gets things wrong in the long term: I'm talking with @psu_13 about Modula-3 and #Ada (making my #pascal video last week got me thinking about these languages) and I said something like "I remember hating Modula-2 specifically because as a young person I wanted to write programs without actually doing any planning or forethought or actual software design" and he killed me with the following words:

"I think the funniest thing about things like Ada and Common Lisp were how back in the day they were thrown away because they were so "hopelessly bloated" and we should stick to "small and easy to understand" languages so we ended up with C++ and Javascript instead."

#GNAT was initially released separately from the main GCC sources. On October 2, 2001, the GNAT sources were contributed to the GCC CVS repository. The last version to be released separately was GNAT 3.15p, based on GCC 2.8.1, on October 2, 2002. Starting with GCC 3.4, on major platforms the official GCC release is able to pass 100% of the ACATS #Ada tests included in the #GCC testsuite.
