DreamBerd has been renamed to C.

Thanks for reading this week's release notes.

This discussion was created from the release DreamBerd has been renamed to C.

[FlooferLand]

Very cool 👍
Hopefully no one forks this language and adds a lot of features nobody asked for

[lifr0m]

One dane gonna dislike this.

[silvasch]

I think this is a very bad decision, as DreamBerd had a lot of brand value in it's name. It has created a lot of new words, like to dreamberd, to be a dreamberdy person, and so on. I'm going to keep calling it DreamBerd.

[FlooferLand]

Have to agree on this one. This project is also where the term "dreaming" was coined from, which is a very popular word used by many, especially in the tech industry.

[jerbear2008]

I agree too. Now what will happen when we sleep at night, now that dreaming has been officially deprecated?

[taitep]

C:ing

[sharunkumar]

[qexat]

I'm a bit confused by that, no explanations left?

[tonyaellie]

have you considered renaming to DreamCBird

[thegatesdev]

CreamBerd would also be a viable alternative.

the most obvious next step

I think the major implications of this patch are going unnoticed to the general Dreamberd community, allow me to clarify.

Since its inception, the C programming language has carried the computer science industry on its shoulders. By associating itself with this key player in the beginning of the modern computing era, the Dreamberd foundation is conveying how C (formerly Dreamberd) is the only indefinite solution for the future computer programming languages.

Still not convinced? Digest the provided mathematical proof:

C -> the C programming language
C -> C (formerly Dreamberd)

Now flip C

Squint your eyes a little bit

Thus, Dreamberd will last forever, as we all knew already.

I think "X" is good too, before "someone" take it

[cowtoolz]

[rotteegher]

I think there is a company that sounds similar and has a logo that has been bitten.

[TodePond]

@rotteegher Yes you're right, it was briefly discussed on this podcast I was on: https://futureofcoding.org/episodes/064

[stohrendorf]

Then this company is a fraught, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_(programming_language)

[skifli]

Well I didn't C that one coming...

[TheGB0077]

I feel disappointed... To me, it's clear that only ℙ would be acceptable to represent the 𝕡𝕖𝕣𝕗𝕖𝕔𝕥 language.

[Moosems]

..... Why?

[rotteegher]

You can't C ?

[notpushkin]

I c what you did there

[adri326]

You definitely have to trademark that logo or some billionaire might try to snatch it!
