The man has moved on to functional programming since then. People are allowed to change. I have 211+ programming books in my library going back to 1998. I don't consider any books from 16 years ago to be valuable or relevant today.

Congratulations weiwenhao! I like what I see so far and am looking forward to following the continued development of the language. Do you have any social media accounts set up for the language (e.g. X, Mastodon, Blue Sky, etc.) that people

https://ejstembler.com I've had a blog since 1998, though my posting frequency has waxed and waned over the years. I use it as a partial résumé and also as outlet for my interests. Mainly, Software Engineering, Machine Le

I couldn't get embedded templating to work for nim. Something similar to Ruby's ERB: https://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.7.0/libdoc/erb/rdoc/ERB.html . Or Crystal's ECR: https://cryst

Though I have a long history with IDEs I feel just as comfortable with the console, or the lighter-weight, electron-based IDEs. For the last couple of years I've lived pretty much exclusive in the Ruby/RubyMine, Python/PyChar

I actually started writing my blog in Crystal, took a little break, and started writing it in Nim. I really like Nim a lot. Some of the code came out more concise in Nim. I like how Nim handles nils better. Options instead of temp var sh
