Inferno was created as a potential Java competitor. That hope is long gone.
- pjmlp 5y agoMy point was that plenty of Plan 9 fan sites ignore Inferno, so there is some hope that it isn't a trend.
- anthk 5y agoImagine today an OS from Google built on top of Linux+Inferno, or well, maybe, Golang and a custom UI.
- pjmlp 5y agoWell, we have to contend ourselves with the Java/Kotlin, JavaScript and Dart flavours, of which Android is probably the closest, although quite twisted implementation. However I do like the idea, either a Goberon or Ginferno version of Go's influences, but that is above all just nostalgia, they wouldn't be the same, and the time has pasted when their ideas were new.
