Every single time I check out one of those upcoming shiny new programming languages that claim to be *simple*:
I just checked out NIM and it says "Simple Example" right there, and it does stuff that C can do but in way more steps.
A 2024 programming language that's more convoluted than C from 1975 calling itself "simple"
Then there's Crystal, that insists on NOT using parenthesis, yet adapted the dumbest operator from C++, the double colon ::
EDIT: Seems like the :: was not taken from C++ and this thing jsut tries to be PHP
I was trying to look for Squirrel replacement for my scripting system and came across Wren too. That tagline at the beginning gives me chills and I don't understand anythign else that's going on there.
@sos one of my current goals with my new engine (well, "new" as in being updated from the same basic codebase I've used since like 2001) is to allow M68k and Z80 asm to be used as scripting languages.
@sos Like, I'm assuming you're doing a bit here. Esp tagging the respective languages. But this sure comes across as gleeful ignorance of some interesting languages & paradigms
