It is a lot (~300 megabyte compressed download!), but worth it.
Here are the links:
And the quote from [WayBack] LAUNCHED https://uberpdf.org/ … – Joe C. Hecht – Google+
LAUNCHED https://uberpdf.org/
…
337 MB of source and utils in 2,308 Files, 910 Folders before you build (not counting 3rd party source UberBuild downloads).
It’s a start, with much to come.It will get easier now that UberBuild is clean.
I will be updating the docs and website in the next few days.
Special thanks …
I already see room for improvement (such as a setup screen for extra compilers such as Delphi and Free Pascal to keep folks out of shell scripts and from hunting for help in the documentation).

Ah, C. The best lingua franca we have… because we have no other lingua francas. Linguae franca. Surgeons general? C is fairly old — 44 years, now! — and comes from a time when there were possibly more architectures than programming languages. It works well for what it is, and what it is is a relatively simple layer of indirection atop assembly. Alas, the popularity of C has led to a number of programming languages’ taking significant cues from its design, and parts of its design are… slightly questionable. I’ve gone through some common features that probably should’ve stayed in C and my justification for saying so. The features are listed in rough order from (I hope) least to most controversial. The idea is that C fans will give up when I call it “weakly typed” and not even get to the part where I rag on braces. Wait, crap, I gave it away.

Via [WayBack] Graph of programming languages influence poster – nice gift idea for programmers… – This is why I Code – Google+:
A network graph with more than a thousand programming languages connected by influence relations. Highly influential languages like Lisp, Smalltalk, C, Java, Pascal, C++, Haskel or Python are shown as larger circles as compared to languages with little influence on others like PHP or Argh!. / The influence relation data was retrieved from Freebase in 2013. This design available on posters and other products. An awesome gift for programmers who are into digital art. • Also buy this artwork on wall prints, apparel, kids clothes, and more.

I wonder how they drew the relations and why certain languages are in certain places.
