I... don't want to be negative, I like new languages, but I can't help but feel underwhelmed. I guess I just don't understand how this meets the goals that were talked about in previous posts (or how it allows development "without accidental complexity"). I don't understand how this makes things easier and I guess when they claimed that deployment is super fast, I didn't realize they meant to infrastructure under their control. Besides the problems other people mentioned (vendor lock-in[1], non-open source programming language, few details on security), being limited to deploying on their platform, while not that unexpected and I certainly understand it, is not what I'm looking for in a programming language. I also don't really like the "HTTP is the FFI" aspect.. even in mainstream languages with fantastic library support, I find myself reaching for FFI (or libraries that themselves use FFI to wrap something else) surprisingly often. I guess this will be a hard pass for me. [1] "We're in this for the long haul" isn't the only reason to be worried about vendor lock-in. The other reasons might be worry that the pricing changes (for the service or for support) or that their priorities change or simply don't line up with yours (eg you require a feature that they don't plan to add).
