alt Hacker News> a garbage collected rust like language with fast compilation
I don't know what languages you might have in mind. "Rust-like" in what sense?

Probably OCaml, Standard ML, Haskell, MLton, F#, Scala,....
If going to complain about some of those being slow, remeber that they have various options between interpreter, bytecode, REPL, JIT and AOT.

It's not a popular thing to say on social media.
V-lang is the one I'm tinkering with. It's like rust in terms of pattern matching as an expression, sum types, ?T instead of exceptions.
Like golang, it has shorter compile times.
I try to keep my argument abstract (that you need to lower python to something intermediate before rust) for that reason.
