Imagine if Linus needed a gaming rig to develop Linux...
And he also did not had cargo at his disposal.
No need to point out it is C instead, as they share common roots, including place of birth.
Or how we used to compile C++ between 1986 and 2000's, mostly in single core machines, developing games, GUIs and distributed computing applications in CORBA and DCOM.
