There's lot of evidence of dating sites doing this, such as having people working for them to string male customers along for money. It's arguably fraud. There are also many other ways to take advantage of desperate or lonely men

I have to agree with the sentiment that men attempting to only or overuse online dating are doing themselves a disservice. They need to develop the confidence and skill to approach women and have natural conversations. Men are severely lim

Not only did detractors flag away my previous response that agreed with your point about how V delivers, but based on their MO (preoccupation with 2019, same catch phrases, and constantly spamming the same certain sites), it's likely t

Arguably, one can't truly say the GC is optional, unless the language and its libraries were designed to work without it. In languages like Vlang, that's the case, as the GC was added later. If turning the GC off cripples the fu

Nonsensical, including telling someone else which languages starting with the letter "V" can't be on their list. As for reading the issues and pull request section, just about all languages have them. So everybody must be &q

Very true. So many languages people haven't heard of. It's like if not in the top 10 or 20, some think they don't matter. In regards to Eiffel, always felt that hindrance to wider adoption was more about the licensing. Sti

How things can go down on HN strikes me as odd, and this seems to be an example. "People" suddenly seem to be quite supportive of: 1) Has not released an alpha yet and after a year. 2) Website that promises a lot (like 2-way C++

Actually good news, because of the problem of if a war broke out over Taiwan (TSMC location). More diversity in the supply chain, is safer.

Not necessarily, if using 3rd party tools to stop telemetry or to check settings. Though I do agree that Microsoft likes to re-enable whatever settings as they please after updates.

This is what Niklaus Wirth was getting at, in his "push back" on conventional class-based OOP. In Pascal, they are called "units", as oppose to "modules". In his Modula/Oberon, they are called modules. M

Not at all. Is around 12 years old, and seems still quite far from hitting 1.0. I'm a bit amazed by that.

But Golang's GC is tweakable. As a compiled language using a GC, it and others aren't that slow. Often fast enough, for many use cases.

> any further memory safety and you're about in Rust land... That's not quite true. We have GC using languages (some allow it to be turned off), and for many or in many use cases, that would be enough. Other languages like Lo

Interesting language. I think a major stumbling block was Red not running on 64-bit OSes. Not quite sure why that wasn't made a priority.

Maybe there is an argument there for non-programmers in technical fields, that use programming at their jobs, but it isn't their primary job. Like a data scientist or architect, trying to use something convenient and easy. The proble

This "critical review", appears more like continuous old spam often used by detractors or to troll. It has no perceived value other than that, because it's a "review" (hit piece) of an alpha version of the language

Enjoy using it. Use for non-critical and various IT related type tasks. Will do more with it when it hits 1.0. Maybe at 0.5, but have to evaluate at that time. Want it to be a little more stable, so don't have to rewrite programs d
