 Gemini is apparently told your Google account age and will answer questions w/the appropriate caution.

Here it is refusing to help someone with C++ because they’re he’s under 18, and advanced C++ is a danger to a young mind. 🤦

 Yeah but it's under the advisement from CISA and a bunch of other agencies. They're not wrong it's actually a good idea, Rust's memory safety features make it nearly impossible to introduce a particular kind of bug that frequently creates major cybersecurity vulnerabilities.

 Well to be fair C++ IS a danger too young minds. If someone has surpassed an entry level programming language it's time to start using Rust.

 Google knows learning to code too young often leads to cypherpunks and other threats to their control 😂
