Language-creators Memes

Someone searched for "CEO of C++" and Google just casually drops Bjarne Stroustrup's name like it's a corporate org chart. The joke here is treating programming languages like companies with CEOs, when in reality Bjarne is the creator of C++. But honestly? Given how much legacy C++ code runs the world's infrastructure, banks, and game engines, calling him CEO undersells it. He's more like the guy who accidentally created a digital empire that refuses to die no matter how many "modern" languages try to replace it. The search results showing his actual name is peak comedy—imagine being so legendary that your language is literally named after the increment operator and not yourself. Meanwhile Guido van Rossum got Python named after Monty Python, and here's Bjarne with the most programmer thing possible: taking C and just... adding one to it. Twice.
