> What I wonder is why there isn't a language that is C, with safe defaults, easy-to use syntax, as fast as C Because part of the speed of C is due to the fact that it doesn't do much for you. The moment you want the language t

I don't know much about D to know whether this is true, but you definitely can switch easily from C to Go.

I didn't say it will, nor did OP say that he wanted the alternative to be as ubiquitous as C. When you refer to Go plug-ins API, do you mean this[1]? Because I wrote a fair amount of Go and wasn't even aware of this package. And w

Yeah, there is. It is called Go. Well, while my answer is not meant to be serious, Go started as "C with some improvements", and the three person team who first wrote it had among them Ken Thompson, one of the first users of C. Be

They probably don't share much nowadays, but look up CBT tapes for an counter example of Banks doing open source and code sharing before it was a thing.

I feel the same and started working on an mainframe assembly codebase a couple of months ago. I'm very happy.

Your argument about enterprise code cannot be verified since we can't have access to it. Also, the sample of enterprise code you have access to is probably limited and thus most likely biased. Doesn't seem like a very good general

I tried Hello once it was launched, hopeful that it would be a viable alternative to facebook which would gain traction because of Orkut's name. I really tried to like it, but I gave up because it didn't have a way to find my real

Were you on windows? Because I can't imagine fancier find and replace than grep, awk, sed, cut and friends. Or maybe 'less' if you want to page and do simple searches. But maybe that's just because I'm used to these
