> What an odd comment when the post contains this "It is mostly for fun and exercise in language design, I don't have any grand aspirations for it."

You are being quite generous in calling the comment "odd".

Here are five words to summarize that comment: disparaging, out of context, cruel, speculative, and pessimistic. pipeline_peak can do better. The HN guidelines are a good start.

>> pipeline_peak : Another Rust lookalike to reinvent the wheel, I wonder what’s gonna happen to it in 10 years.




Yes, it's all of the things you mentioned. I just meant that it's odd someone would go out of their way to write a comment like this, especially when the original post says it's just for fun/practice.


Aaaaaand no response from wtetzner

I gotta say getting this much coverage from one individual over my little comment is pretty odd, or is that “quite generous”?
