    Gotta 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.

      That crowd is moved to X these days, in my experience. HN became mostly the folks who didn't notice.

        You can find everything on X, from dumpster fires to peak intellectual, everything in between.

          Less so, here.
