Does that mean you're doing work week by week that is well-scoped and planned for that week and you can't pick up the work for next week until that week happens? It just seems like mostly programmers work on things that extend out for a long time and you can kind of just throw more at the problem and pull it forward earlier

If you hammer their free tier with lots of nonsense queries that also probably doesn't help them. Definitely don't pay them
With that said, for the free tier I tend to use grok - another provider I will never pay
Anthropic does get money from me for now

I'm not involved in the initiative so I can't answer the question definitively? I provided one of the major reasons that projects get switched from C. I think it's likely to be a major part of the motivation.

As a user, you may not be aware that C makes it relatively easy to create https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_overflow which are a major source of security vulnerabilities.
This is one of the best reasons to rewrite software in Rust or any other more safe by default language.

Technically it appears red dye no 3 was banned due to cancer and Delaney clause, however, keep in mind that I think the primary reason it was banned in California last year was all the studies correlating it to deleterious cognitive impacts on children
