I would love to see a language that is to C what Rust is to C++. Something a more average human brain like mine can understand. Keep the no-gc memory safety things, but simplify everything else a thousand times.
Not saying that should replace Rust. Both could exist side by side like C and C++.
- wtetzner 10mo agoI'm curious about what you'd want simplified. Remove traits? What other things are there to even simplify if you're going to keep the borrow checker?
- 1313ed01 10mo agoI'm the last person to be able to answer that. There would be Chesterton's fences everywhere for one thing. Better question is what to add to something like C. The bare minimum to make it perfectly safe. Then stop there.
