I like the java-like object orientation where you can just lambda code in, or derive a class, etc.

thanks for sharing

So I assume that it can generate code for any platform GCC supports? That's pretty great as GCC is pretty universal at this point. So for example could you compile D to 8-bit AVR?

Are there any Lisp-machine-like FPGA cores? That would be much more practical than dumpster diving at MIT or whatever. With modern improvements to the GUI and so on it could really become a thing again

6502 assembly is my favorite kind of assembly.. until you run out of zero page space for indexing. It's fun if you think of it as a puzzle game I guess

I would agree with this 100% if it weren't for the hideous beast that C++ has become. I still think it's the best thing we have, though. I agree with your underlying premise here. It's like the difference between studying Knuth or Steele and going to flavor-of-the-week seminar. One is a solid foundation and the other is dressing up a pig for a whiz-bang kickstarter video

I take more of a "when in doubt, do it in python" approach because life is just too short to spend on specifications :) But I'm sure you're right

They both suck because of unspecified behavior in some situations. And usually when you want it least. Like for loops using pointers. Trust me, just say "counter += 1" and you will never have to know the pain

More likely just steal your best ideas
