alt Hacker NewsGotta say, having followed Taelin on this project since mid 2023, this was not the response I expected when this language first dropped.
It's interesting how cosmetics drive discussion, and how HN comments are weirdly divided in a very dismissive or skeptical camp and those acting incredulous and offended at the reaction of the former.
What I expected instead was a lot more discussion about use cases, benchmarking, possibilities, limitations (that aren't about git history) and the scope of future development.

hn is just a bunch of wannabes these days. It's still a decent link aggregator but the discussions are exceptionally weak <shrug>
That crowd is moved to X these days, in my experience. HN became mostly the folks who didn't notice.
