So you think it's okay to lie and mislead people? You're going round the comments and telling everybody how wrong they are. Do you have any thing to say about concerns raised in the blog post? Or would you say that it's a lie

Again!! Same video you've been throwing on whoever asks about "autofree", knowing very well that it doesn't work. I asked this question before and was banned on discord, do you have control flow graph analysis anywhere i

Like what is lie? I was offered money to develop something in WASM using V, so that they could add it to their "awesome-v" list. Aren't you the part of the core team who bans anyone on discord who asks questions about V'

They call names to anybody who dares to ask a genuine question they don't like. It's a meme by now, how easy it is to get banned on V's discord server. I've a feeling that author tried to bring these issues on their disc

Even when they are known to be scammers and frauds? V's author is paying others to write things in V (even when basic functionalities don't work as advertised). They don't want to improve the language, they want to create a s

You are not doing yourself any favor by harassing people, if anything it makes you look like a fan-boy. Do yourself a favor, read the article then present a constructive criticism, if any.

And how did you conclude that author is "falsely" making any accusation? Is it similar to your last claim (1) that V doesn't have "null" (which has been debunked)? (1): https://news.ycombinator.com/i

Other benchmarks don't stress the GC enough, only the binary-tree one does.

I'm sure there would still be ways to bring the entire process to halt(for example, spawn thousands of threads with infinite loop). My point is just because a bad developer wrote bad code doesn't mean that a tradeoff chosen for a

Thanks for taking time and explaining things around v's state of affairs. Also I'd like to add that V's first feature, "no null" is a myth. V supports initializing a reference with 0, which is null/nil or whate

Yeah, it doesn't change the fact that their advertised features don't work as expected and is crippled with tons of bugs.

My 2cents, I'm a software engineer and have been in industry for long time(~20 years). A new programming language doesn't excite me anymore as it used to do 5-10 years ago, then I encountered Rust and I really liked it. All my per

What's wrong with it? Rust in one of the things I'm interested in, so it really helps when title contains "Rust". If you don't like it ignore it, nobody is forcing you to go through it.

It's great to see good wasm frameworks. I know the DOM interaction still requires js bridging, but I'm still interested in knowing rendering performance relative to yew (another wasm framework) and reactjs. Also last time I tested

Similarly almost every feature in V has some hacks or doesn't work outright. But authors of V don't have enough dignity to mention the in-progress/missing features on home page. And when somebody points them to their dishones

I want to ask V community a question, as they advertise their language as safe, what do they mean by safety and what does V compiler do to maintain this safety?

Ditto same experience, I asked if somebody could explain me the memory model of V; and all of sudden hell broke loose. I was asked why do I need to know how memory model worked, are you a troll, if you don't contribute to the lang you&
