@BeGreaterBullet@TPointUK Still no one in custody. I'm thinking it was a professional job. The skill to shoot someone accurately from 200 yards away is insane, and then to not leave any trace behind is also an indicator.
@247m4comp @mustafa_kh4n "you can't do much with it"
So. . .you're forgetting operating systems, embedded devices, programming languages (like the python interpreter), etc?
@hankadusikova It's a lot better than writing them in C. With C++ you can use templates to write DS's to work with a multitude of types, where in C, you'd either have to do some weird macro magic, or use `void*` and constantly pass the type information around.
@thegeeknarrator Personally, I don't think Rust solves the problem of C or C++. I'm more on the Zig boat because it provides more features than C without being as bloated as C++. It aims to be fast and portable, with verbose control flow, which I don't think Rust is.
@AVertver@rfleury Zig is still a very immature language. Once it reaches 1.0, things will slow down. Right now Zig is very volatile. There are still things to change and add. So we'll see what happens when Zig finally reaches its major milestone.
@rfleury I will agree that there're much more core language features than a language like C, but complexity can be a good thing. What C needed was more features (like generics) and a more fully fledged standard library. Zig has both. We may just have to agree to disagree.
@rfleury How so? Zig aims to be fast and portable, which is what C aimed to be. Zig is already doing this in a better way, where you have more comptime techniques, incremental compilation (in progress), verbose control flow, and more. Zig seems poised to be the next C of our generation.
@michiolino @tsoding Nice. If it wasn't obvious I'm on the Zig boat lol. Hopefully our languages will show true promise in the future. We're both gambling on investing our time into the possibility of our languages succeeding! :D
