But the cloud thing and the container thing actually happened. Not 100%, but it is basically the standard these days.
Of the things you mentioned, only crypto is mostly bullshit tech with no actual use.

So are you or are you not implying that this would be quietly enabled without explicitly prompting the user?
Or you could just turn the feature off. Or just not enable it in the first place, as it's possibly illegal to do this without showing an allow/disallow prompt at least - so just don't click allow. Just saying.
I guess the ones they stopped just weren't covert enough.
C is one of the few languages where using goto makes sense as a poor man's local error/cleanup handler.
Trains are expensive to run if you don't have enough passengers (like in small villages).
Kotlin is a really nice language with plenty of users, good tooling support, gets rid of a lot of the boilerplate that older languages have, and it instills many good practices early on (most variables are immutable unless specified otherwise, types are not nullable by default unless specified otherwise, etc)
But to get the most "bang for your buck" early on, you can't beat JavaScript (with TypeScript to help you make sense of your codebase as it keeps changing and growing).
You will probably want to develop stuff that has some user interface and you'll want to show it to people, and there is no better platform for that than the web. And JS is by far the most supported language on the web.
And the browser devtools are right there, an indispensable tool.
Peace treaty signed, then Russia invades 2 years later anyway and takes over everything?
If users have the "I can always upgrade later" option, that screws with the purchases of the higher end models "just in case I need it in the future".
That's trivial to filter if you just look at how much time has passed between posting and editing. Reddit comments are only very rarely updated after more than a day.
Another advantage is that it doesn't force people to initially buy the higher version because "what if I end up needing it in the future" (like what Apple forces you to do with non-upgradable storage), even if you never do. It lets you buy the cheaper version for now, with the possibility to change your mind later.
This is of course in addition to just taking all the training data without credit or permission by both teams, which usually goes without saying these days.
