I understand the effort and it seems like a nice little language but wouldn't it make more sense to target already existing C--, QBE, LLVMIR or similar? There must be "simpler C" languages already which sounds more useful giv

I attempted to read this and it was very interesting and greatly written but I had to drop it. This was worse than a horror book, nothing scarier to me than to think about terminal illnesses.

What follows is just my theory, but I think it's merely a matter of politics and culture. Trump doesn't want Milei's government to fail, he needs successful examples of neoliberal, anti-woke, populist, anti-inmigration govern

Oh but they absolutely did beat MacOS. The amount of people who give a damn about UI polish, response times, etc. is insignificant to them. They got away with pushing ads, online and enterprise services, Copilot, etc. to every desktop user.

imho web shops looking for the new shiny have tried to use Rust in search of more type-safety or performance (or to look cool) Companies using C, C++ or even Go probably are less keen on switching stacks for the sake of it.
