i think i might be wrong about those comments being automated. just watched a few videos on youtube, especially one involving a group of snipers and a child. people are so radicalized. i don't want to sound alarmist but there is someth

do adoption or market share matter in this context? if you can have best of the both worlds why would you want to deal with an another language?

many people here believe private business has a right to control anything they please (their platform, their rules) and to some extent they are right but the infuriating thing is that the banhammer is obviously not just. so one has to ask;

a soldier may defer the responsibility and somehow manage to rationalize it. there is also probablity in the equation. but after the fact? horror in front of your eyes how a human being can highfive the death of a children? won't these

simplicty is important, but i believe it is not the most important metric for a PL and have no problem with complex PLs. the question; is it worth the trouble? c++s failure is not the complexity but c++ being one of the least orthogonal lan

didn't lisp prove the opposite? you can go lower than c and higher than any language we currently have in the same language?

andrew, a language with first class cross-compilation alone is enough for me to respect you as a language designer and zig have so many features like this. i am a huge fan. i have only one favourite feature in c++ and it is templates/c

but you can misuse anything, + vs add was an example for this. being able to misuse a PL i believe is not a bug but a feature. we really suck at predicting the future.

in fact i believe templates are the greatest idea in static typing. they look awful because its design and the implementation is awful not the idea. c++ failed because they didn't know and too late to turn back, and rust just looks sam

that is exactly my point. it has everything. elegance, vision, practicality... it doesn't treat programmers like drones.

my only beef with zig/jai is that they both have strong opinions on things like operator overloading and i am afraid they will end up just like java. i have nothing against having strong opinions, i am the biggest offender but comple

the greatest of all is lisp not being the most mainstream language, and we can only blame the lisp companies for this fiasco. in an ideal world we all would be using a lisp with parametric polymorphism. from highest level abstractions to ma

powerfull people can silence you in so many ways. they will always have a platform, you won't. you also got discourse backwards. you should be judging the arguments presented (which in this case not much), not the persona.

pg is one of the people introduced me to lisp and i think lisp is the greatest idea in computer science. so his ideas have some weight for me, but lately the disconnect is quite unbearable. he is again picking the wrong side in history. wil

clicked a few light links (no gore, no blood) and the more shocking part was the comments... they can't be real people, it has got to be a bot and/or honeypot of some kind.
