I really wish Linux swift was a thing. I’m a relatively new cs person, I’m going to grad school and doing interdisciplinary work where I am making all sorts of neural networks. So by default my language of choice right now is Python. But I’d love to get sharp at Swift! I like the syntax, I like how I could use it to write apps for my phone, I like how it’s fast.
But my daily driver is a system76 Linux box running PopOS… that’s not a swift friendly environment. I guess the best compromise I’ve found for stuff I want to run in both places is Pythonista? Which is fantastic to be clear, but iOS is really constrained…
I want the ML infrastructure of Python, the speed of C and the ability to write fast cross platform apps in a syntax that isn’t confusing violence… Save me programming language nerds.

The main compromise is that it appears a large portion of the toolchain is closed-source at the moment, and it appears that they're trying to get developers onto their enterprise offering, whatever that entails.
