V does have an optional garbage collected mode. Just compile your program with: v -gc boehm file.v

It works very well under wine.

Checkout https://github.com/vlang/v/ . Recompiling the V compiler itself from scratch (V is written in V), after you make a change to its source, takes ~2s.

The people that are making fun of V, instead of helping, at this point are nothing more than hateful jerks imho. They just want to hate something - if not V, it would be something else.

It also runs on real hardware (tested on an old Intel i3), not only in qemu.

As for Coverity, we are considering it, and afaik Alex has a license for PVS-Studio.

I myself do not claim that V is production ready. It is not even 0.2 ... I think it is very disingenuous of you, to put words in my mouth in such a way. I would appreciate, if you stop doing that to me, or others in the future.

I am more motivated to have a language that compiles fast to small binaries, is easy to understand and use, and is cross platform, but thanks for you attempt for psychoanalysis of a stranger on the internet anyway. If I were you though, I w

I lived through the early 90s, when Borland's Turbo Pascal and later Delphi, compiled programs in a fraction of a second. It proved empirically, that compilation does not need to be slow, if the language is simple and carefully designe

I do not know the full context, because at the time I was not involved with the V project. I did notice then though that the playground was taken down, and there is this: https://web.archive.org/web/20191223200601/

I am not the language author, just a contributor. There are many contributors like me, that see the potential of V, instead of focusing on petty beefs about how someone had been wrong on the Internet once upon a time. > What's the b

Unfortunately, V currently does not generate a classical stricter IR, but C code (as strings) directly, which explains some of the issues concerning C compilation errors. I am optimistic about the future though, so I continue writing and ch

V is not a silver bullet either. No language is. V values highly fast compilation times, and does not claim to have the best type system, similar to Go.

There is no GC, and the language is indeed simpler than rust. The "only" thing missing for now is "no leaks", but we are working on it. You may be interested in https://aardappel.github.io/lobster/me

It does not. The reloaded program can crash. It is very useful for tweaking code, but if you make more substantial changes to your state, currently hot code reload will not help you, and you may be better of just restarting your app.

Please do. I really enjoy your objective criticisms.

Hm, are you sure that attacking the V's playground at the time and publishing info, that others could use to attack it, did not have something to do with your ban?
