> "As fast as C" would commonly be interpreted as "a program written in it will be as fast as a well-written C equivalent" That’s your interpretation, which is fine, but the objective meaning stands. Even the idea of

I’m not sure that I understand your argument. If the code from which the resulting machine code is compiled is C, then it’s objectively “as fast as C” … because, at the end of the day, it actually is C. Being “as fast as C” means that your

What you said here was literally my point. Maybe you misunderstood me?

Much needed perspective in the age of overly dramatic headlines and straight up misinformation.

Those are valid questions when evaluating an unknown technology. How could anyone consider this trolling? Not to digress but have we become too sensitive?

On the contrary, I feel that the stylistic [and sometimes semantic] separation of primitive and boxed types in languages (e.g., `byte` VS `Byte` in Java) improves the developer experience, in that I can very quickly dissect the type of valu

To the creator: I actually just went through the trouble of resetting my Product Hunt account (I haven’t been on there in a long time) just to give you that upvote! Thank you for this! Cheers.

My popcorn got cold. This train-wreck is taking too long. The suspense is killing me.

Yikes. This is part of the reason why I prefer to never let any services/apps/etc. save my bank/card details. If there’s not an option to save the card details that I can uncheck, 9x out of 10, I reconsider the transaction. T

Yes, that’s a significant catch, but this is some good work nonetheless. That said, I’d hope that someone using a C library like this wouldn’t just start using it without understanding the potentially non-trivial consequences/side-effe

Bingo. Environments like that seem to be the new “wave” now. I can’t stand them! Maybe it’s just me but I don’t understand how anyone can get any work done in those settings.

Many a time, I’ve hired software engineers without degrees over software engineers with Ivy League or top-10 school CS degrees, and I haven’t regretted it even once. Nowadays, I don’t even put education “requirements” in job descriptions, a

> By the senior levels you can't really tell the difference between someone with or without a CS degree. Experience definitely beats textbook knowledge after a couple of years. Agreed. Absolutely correct!

I’ve been wanting to set up something like this, but I’m too lazy. It probably wouldn’t even take that long to set up.

To be honest, I understand the bit of backlash that I’ve received here and I think it’s well-deserved since I should’ve worded my statement better. Thank you for your comments. You all are correct re firing someone over mistakes and seeming

I mean, I get it, but I think performance is overrated in this particular case; unless it’s a significant and/or very noticeable difference, stick to object literals, please. I’d probably fire someone if I started to see `JSON.parse(…)
