Erm yes! Even the White House has said that.

The only reason we didn't for so long was because we didn't have a viable alternative. Now we do, we should absolutely stop writing C.

The white house recently said a lot of things. But of all things, I don’t think they’re even qualified to have an opinion about software, or medical advice, or… well, anything that generally requires an expert.

This is referring to a report issued in 2024, under the previous administration. It has nothing to do with anything currently in the news.
