None of the features discussed are aesthetic only.

Nope. It links to an explanation of what that poster is:

This is the UNIX Magic Poster, originally created by Gary Overacre in the mid-1980s and published by UniTech Software.

I feel like we're talking past each other. My impression was that 30% towards your living situation is a pretty decent target; what would you expect the percentage to be?

Okay, what I meant was, is rent taking 30% really indicative of a low standard of living?

Rent eating 30-40% of your income is extremely normal, isn't it? Or is that only true in the US (where it has recently become much more than that for many people)?

Lots of acronyms no longer stand for anything due to losing their original associations. LLVM, AT&T, SAT (the test, not the programming problem), etc.

Probably moreso for expressing the opinion so strongly without actually knowing any of the three languages.

Edit: I'm just guessing why a different comment got downvotes. Why am I getting downvotes?

Doesn't the first edition use K&R style parameter lists and other no-longer-correct syntax?

You don't have to imagine it; you can browse the Linux Kernel mailing list!

That's called a mailing list

I think generally C compilers prefer to keep the stack intact for debugging and such.
