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.

  hn is just a bunch of wannabes these days. It's still a decent link aggregator but the discussions are exceptionally weak <shrug>

    Every place I ever join is declared a shadow of its former self shortly after, it's like a curse.
