> how would the ideal low and high level language look like in your opinion? I really don't know. I didn't know about the utility of affine types for memory safety in a low-level language before Rust, and I didn't know how much could be done with just comptime before Zig, so I certainly can't say what would be ideal for me. In terms of values, I would like a very simple language that helps write correct code and has fast compilation. None of the low-level languages I know about fully meet those goals, but so far Zig comes closest. Then again, it's easy to look good before you're actually out there, so we'll see. > Regarding the high level languages, do you find java’s Valhalla plans good? TBH, I haven't been following Valhalla closely, but knowing the people involved, I have the utmost confidence in what they'll do.
