Swift solves different problems
You don't write drivers or mobile apps in Python
For the same reason you don't use Swift to write your scripts, you don't need to compile python to run it
That's some tasteless FUD

- ohiovr 4y agoIts really about the industrial interest in it. Swift made it hard to adopt and gain skills because pretty much every day something big would change with it that did not make it easier, it made it harder to use. You couldn't manage a code base with it because with every new thing they changed it blew up everything. So you might make a driver in Swift, but only for apple because the only alternative is Objective-C, which is also just slightly more sane than C++ which should be put in an asylum. Since I hate apple and their languages I'm never going to bother with them again. Either the language or the company.
