This is a huge bugbear of mine, since I first looked at Java v1 and every few weeks (it seemed) at the time there was a new version that cadded loads of new functions and deprecated others. C++ has been going through this to some extent recently with auto_ptr, lock_guard (?) etc; I think 3 years is too short a release cycle when you're trying to make think your language is suitable for "professional" programming. And the move from Python 2 to Python 3 was a disaster that was only really resolved after the Raspberry Pi was released and encouraged the adoption of Python 3.
Compare this to development

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Everyone should just stick to C. All modern languages encourage bloat and patterns of nonsense.

much incomprehense
unable to parse

Yes, the best thing about C is that it doesn't change much like any other programming language.
