Part of the problem is sidestepping around the issue of parental accountability. Certain parties see giving the government increased power into the home, as their opportunity for more control over their populations and any dissent in genera

Problem seems to come more from languages that force OOP usage and force their libraries to use it, versus it being really optional. Every solution doesn't require a class and everything in existence should not be defined as an object.

That has been around for a long time now. V lang[1], child of Go and Rust, has them. That, and things like enums, sum types, etc... [1]: vlang.io

Odin can be considered even more "half-baked". It is not a mainstream "corporate approved" language either. It's one thing to suggest sticking with Go or using C# as an alternative, it is another thing to suggest la

While it is true, better regulations are needed to get control of some of these companies, those same companies are going to attempt to buy off politicians and whoever possible. It's not going to be any kind of easy battle or quick fix

Smells like the same old tired world of bizarre tricks by the rivals of V. This and the previous strange rants like it. From what I've been seeing, glad people are also figuring this out, with the rinse and repeat smears, distortions,

Good catch. Thanks for posting the video.

Think that is a misconception, that Go was just designed for inexperienced people. Rather it was designed to be easier to use than C++, from which the motivation to have something different came. That a language is easier to use, doesn&#x27

But there is no guarantee that the person will not outgrow, need, or want some other plugin later. Just because somebody paid for something, doesn't mean it will be continually useful.

Good introduction and review. V has great potential and is user friendly. Fun to play with.

But it appears that Elon and supporters don't care. They have their bubble and they are happy. It's a matter of who and how many are willing to pay for the bubble.

It reminds me of Vlang (vlang.io), but where Goplus is a half way step between Go and them. It strikes one as, a lot of people felt there are things missing in Go that they wanted, but how Go is governed it would never be possible to add or

This is well said. I understand wanting to keep the language smallish and simple, but enums is such a basic and well known feature, it's almost asking for trouble or dissatisfaction to not fully implement it.

The language is worked on by a group of people from around the world, not just Alex. It has to be looked at as a group effort. The total contributor count is at 722, as of today. There is a lot of rhetoric thrown around as criticism or bein

Was curious, so checked up. V has Chinese contributors[2] and who have also translated their documentation from English to Chinese[1]. As was mentioned, other languages have Chinese followings too. [1] https://www.bookstack.cn&#x

Agree with your assessment. Things about this seems way too personal, unknowns involved, or very clear ties back to its competition. A good review should be from known persons, who are actual neutral 3rd parties. Possibly some are: [1] Is V

"Sounds like someone criticizing some kid’s side project." That's a really big "kid's side project". Looking at V's GitHub stats: 35.2k Stars 722 Contributors 2.1k Forks

Their site is clearly showing the language is in beta. The V documentation also states that autofree is WIP, and to use the GC instead. This isn't a corporate created language, but looks to be a true volunteer open source effort from p

I'm in agreement with you. Like one or the other, not the switch over. I rather the approach be that if it is an open source project, that they ask for donations. It is possible to succeed in that way, though it requires learning how t

These are good questions. Would also be great to rank the data as a list, as to what's the most in demand.

Winglang has picked up a lot of contributors. Now past 85. Looks like they will have some staying power.
