It began very simple, so that I took it not very serious for a moment, but I never heard many of the later words. But thanks to knowing some latin and other languages, I could understand many of them.
Raku to me is like Esperanto: An absolutely beautiful idea that sadly is not used widely (or even known widely). And for both cases, I would love for things to be different, but since the alternatives (be it English or Java/Typescript/...) are deemed "good enough", chances are slim.
This is not wrong per se, but they also try to reduce/remove this giant lock as much as possible. If you see entries like "Unlocked socket splicing." in the changelog, then this is one more case where the giant lock is not needed and in which therefore all cores can be used.
The Emacs one is actually more a bug/feature in Git.
If you execute "git ls-files" in the folder from the PoC, the payload gets executed. Emacs just does this automatically for you.
You never get a second chance at making a good first impression.
I believe that many people that gladly use Rust or Zig or Go nowadays would be quite happy with D if they were willing to give it a fair evaluation. But I still often find people going "D? I would never use a language where the ecosystem is split between different standard libraries"/"D? No thanks, I prefer compilers that are open source" or similar outdated claims. These things have not been true for a long time, but once they are stuck in the heads of the people, it is over. And these claims spread to other people and get stuck there.
If you do not want to use a GC, it is trivial to avoid it and still be able to use a large chunk of the ecosystem. But often avoiding GC at all costs is not even necessary - you mostly want to avoid it in specific spots. Even many games today are written with tasteful usage of GC.
The one thing that really is a fair disadvantage for D is its small community. And the community is small because the community is too small (chicken/egg) and many believe in claims that have not been true for a long time ...
It would not make Windows a good project, but it would mean that hardware vendors would have to implement good Linux drivers. It could therefore help all other distributions, too!
I tried the pronunciation feature, which works less than awesome on my system. I am happy to share that "語彙" is pronounced "chinese letter chinese letter", while for "効果的" it is "chinese letter chinese letter chinese letter".
Is that just my Debian/Firefox system? Or is "AI slop" the reason here?
Ha! I like the thought of unconciousness triggering a "kernel OOPS" and the brain dumping out a backtrace of everything. Makes you wonder who is supposed to debug it later ...
The challenge then is to differentiate between "I wanted to access the secret website/document" and "Google/Copilot gave me the secret website/document, but it was not my intention to access that".

A fun idea!
