'Industry standards' is where programming languages go to die ;)

As for PRs: well yeah of course, when in Rome...

C has been doing quite well with industry standards like UNIX/POSIX, OpenGL, Vulkan, VFX, OpenMP,..

Same applies to C++ with CUDA, SYSCL, HPC/HFT frameworks, LLVM/GCC, AI compilers,...

They don't look dead to me, even if we as industry could be much better by now.
