I have to say, the more experienced I get the less I have such kind of excitements. It sounds like K is great in certain domains, but for example looking at the language it is missing big tools I deem important for software for example - ex

One critical thing for TypeScript's success that I wish for the Lua community is that it paved a roadmap for typing a huge chunk of the JS ecosystem. Porting to TypeScript can be entirely incremental, and you usually have a wealth of t

Is it possible they would be served by a different standard where C is a high-level assembly? Although admittedly, "&*p" to me reads as 'load p' and therefore undefined behaviour

I'm fine with XML complexity, some things pay off. It remains entrenched in networking world. Some things are awkward though, like needing to introduce named fields for everything - e.g. not being able to have an XML file that is purel

In some ways, there is 'good disconnect' if the disconnect is that the academia merely informs your thinking, not your immediate actions. It shows that you learned the fundamentals in an insular environment that doesn't muddl
