So it's becoming C++?
- hirvi74 1y agoConsidering Swift was primarily written in C++, perhaps Swift was always destined to follow the same path?
- rcruzeiro 1y agoSo following this same reasoning Python should become C?
- hirvi74 1y agoI like how you think. I'm down for it. I have never liked dynamically typed languages.
- codr7 1y agoMakes some sense, since its developers probably thought C++ was a pretty good idea, it just needed some more features. Same mindset that killed Rust for me. I gave up on C++ for good reasons, after spending roughly 20 years trying to make sense of it.
- 90s_dev 1y agoWhy not just code in a small, sane subset of C++ that you understand perfectly? That's what I do with TypeScript and it works fine.
- codr7 1y agoThat's my feeling, and it makes me sad because I have largely given up on C++ for that reason.
- Hashex129542 1y agoIt's becoming Rust.
- codr7 1y agoWhich I never even bothered with, for that reason.
- metaltyphoon 1y agoFor some reason, I find Rust much easier to understand. Swift has so many constructs and special syntax while Rust is much more "tidy" with the syntax.
