So sad to hear this. Hard to imagine anyone else playing Dr. Alan Grant in Jurassic Park.

Doesn't Zig also have bitwise operators?

Wait, I'm confused. Do you mean Boston should have made non-compete agreements illegal?

I assume OP means that a probe launched today would take decades to exit the solar system.

The thing I don't understand with these loan arguments is: don't you eventually need to pay taxes in the income you use to repay the loan? It seems to me that folks who take out such loans are just kicking the can down the road.

Just wanted to say this is an amazing technical writeup, thanks for sharing.

Looks amazing. However, I'm confused about some of the examples in the ownership section. Consider this example:

  [fn consume [xs]
  [println [str "got " [len xs] " items"]]]
  [let items #[1 2 3]]
  [consume items]
  ; items has been moved — using it here is a compile error

This is described as an example of a setting where the variable 'items' has been moved, so it can no longer be used. However, the consume function does not mutate its argument, so I don't see why 'items' can no longer be used. In addition, it seems to me that the term 'moved' is being used to mean 'mutated'. Is that correct, or do I have it wrong?

Another example from the website is the following:

  [fn length [xs] [len xs]]

  [let items #[1 2 3]]
  [println [length items]]
  [println [length items]]  ; items not consumed

The website explains this example as follows: "If the compiler can prove that a reference will not outlive the owner, it passes a borrow instead of moving." However, there are no references in this example, only the original variable 'items'. Am I missing something? I think the language is cool, but the explanations of the semantics could be improved.

What old features would you like to dispose of in a modern redesign of D? What would this new edition look like?

Been using Boks for a couple months, haven't noticed much difference. Maybe some reduced sensitivity.

I'm confused: why would you short BTC if you knew in advance that additional tariffs would be announced? Wouldn't you expect that to increase the dollar value of BTC due to depreciation of the dollar?

You are correct that 1-based indexing is the norm among mathematicians, but none of the creators of Lua is a mathematician, AFAIK. You can read about the early history of Lua here:

I have the Pioneer and it is excellent. Amazing quality and good selection of tools. I do wish they included a Phillips head screwdriver.
