To be fair, the static keyword is overused in various languages and has various other purposes.
IIRC: C has both static functions and variables. Static variables keep their value for the next time a function is called, no idea what static meant for function declaration.
Rust has static variables, which are similar to constants but can be abused as global variables.
That’s true, but these are also the same people who say they are a 9/10 in Java at career fairs. I’ve been working in Java for 10+ years and I’d still only consider myself an 8/10 maybe.
