Have we all started to mention the language now when we write a piece of software?

The binary sizes that Nim produces are as usual misrepresented. D and C will blow it out of the water. Here's some D code: import core.stdc.stdio; extern(C) void main() { printf("Hello, World!\n");

I think I agree. I used to write a lot of C# v2 and loved it. There didn't seem to be anything 'missing'. Each version since then has added nice things but are they really necessary? Now the language looks huge and complicate

'Linux' tends to have a reputation as being complicated to use or it's just for developers, etc. But nothing could be further from the truth. If you install one of the more modern distributions like Ubuntu, the OS runs faster

Partial application is a technique, not a language construct. Plus, you can already use partial application in JavaScript and have been able to for years.
