@TimSuchanek Such a confused tweet, do you not understand the difference between git and GitHub? Are you an idiot?

People complain about GitHub. But who's actually building a better git genuinely powerful enough to become the foundation for the replacement?

@filpizlo Is fil-c free? Can I use it on my project? How do I download it

I wrote a document describing the Fil-C optimized calling convention. Lots of fun ELF hacks. Also some arithmetic encoding shenanigans. fil-c.org/calling_conven…

@NewAgeRetroNerd Idk, but your gay

If you had to guess on looks alone, what language do you think I code in?

@edandersen @raddevus Guy above you has the LinkedIn persona, empty platitudes

@raddevus Incredible, thank you

This is the most horrifying comment I’ve ever received on my channel I feel a bit sick and need to have a lie down

@LisaBlackpoint @mehdirhasan They lose less than republicans, look at the last presidents almost all of them had two consecutive terms except trump. And power regular flips back and forth between republicans democrats. Before trump, its biden, before biden its trump, before trump it’s obama for 2 terms.

@mehdirhasan Democrats lose because of their socialist ideology. Wait until Michigan flips. Then you might understand. Wait until there is no blue wave. Democrats lost me 2 years ago

I’m trying to imagine any Republican governor in America doing the equivalent of what Jared Polis just did. This is why Democrats lose.

@xah_lee I’m not gay either, but for you I’ll make an exception. Cos I remember your surprise dick pics on your website from years ago lmao

@CoderCarl eh? lol. me no gay.

jisssssus. amazing ai robbing my job and insta answer and perfect answer and teaching me things teaching me programing things daily where on here, i talk to professional coders, arguing daily, 5 hours typing arguments per day, i might learn one thing in a fucking month

@tfranklyn_ @segun_os_ All I said was it’s boring. Glad you agree. For me, a boring language is bad “developer experience”, I want to enjoy my actual job AND write powerful, fast, and concise code. Go is not worth any trade off for me. I work in a C++ shop and Go doesn’t cut it.

@CoderCarl @segun_os_ it's boring coz you're confusing language complexity for engineering sophistication?? how many companies are migrating from python and js to go with measurable perf improvements? the very boringness you mentioned is the reason why the language is so popular.

you people are beginning to see the light. no reason to be writing backend applications in nodejs and python when you have go in 2026. go is superior in every way. speed, dx, efficiency, simpler (than ts. no hidden quirks), concurrency and tooling.

@tfranklyn_ @segun_os_ Yes, and they’re proud of that boringness. “No magic” explicit vs implicit etc, no interesting features. It was explicitly designed so dumb programmers can’t fuck it up and it’s always readable by the lowest common denominator. Read up on it, these were design guidelines for it.

@CoderCarl @segun_os_ go, the most boring language? atp it's just a skill issue

@mil000 Google what the word “illegible” means you illiterate fuck.

does anyone understand what he’s trying to say anymore? it’s borderline illegible

@LazyCat909 No, grok couldn’t tell she was a fucking jeet from a cartoon. You lie.

Result

Hey @grok turn this into reality !!

@Nekrolm Nice answer! What do you think about C++26 reflection?

@CoderCarl constexpr and template specializations

На всякий случай для новоподписавшихся: Я не люблю Zig как инструмент за сомнительные решения в языке и стандартной библиотеке. Но это хороший язык по сравнению с C. Я пишу на Rust и C++ и предпочитаю Rust как инструмент. Хотя в нем тоже есть много сомнительных решений. Я поддерживаю инициативы по миграции кода на безопасные языки. Но адекватные миграции, а не вот это вот

@sanyaele @_andrewthecoder Primary tech stack obviously means what they’ve been focussing on the last couple years.

@CoderCarl @_andrewthecoder I have never seen OPs posts before, but anyone who has been in the industry over 20 years cannot have JS as primary tech stack. Do you know what JS was doing 20 years ago?!

I got an email from a company earlier today (rejection of course). And just as a joke (cuz I didn't figure anyone would monitor the email), I responded something like, "yeah you don't want an old guy with a quarter century of software engineering experience!" Within like 5 minutes, I got an email back saying that they are not allowed to consider my age, my rejection was because the [system] (they didn't say whether it was ATS or AI) stated that I was basically an intern level candidate. (keep in mind, the last 13 years of my career has been me working for myself and running business)!

@AndrewH93308574 @glcst @JesseStojan @Malix_Labs Can’t you use a message passing abstraction? I use message passing libraries for concurrency in C++ and never had much of a problem, but we may work on different domains

@CoderCarl @glcst @JesseStojan @Malix_Labs I agree modern C++ can be a breeze but my example - sort of stepping right on the concurrency landmine, I guess - would be c++ coroutines. I don’t mean to opine about whether they’re good or bad; I do opine they’re more difficult than the kind of things that inspired them.

C and Zig are only easier to read compared to Rust if you don't mind memory issues If you care about memory issues, they become, literally, the two hardest programming languages to read, both for you and for the AIs

@ThePrimeagen Its* not it’s in this case.

I have really loved my time exploring Odin-lang It's crazy having a language that is batteries included. Using a language that knows what it's job is and is good at it. 0 dependencies is bliss

@LukasHozda It’s not due to safety it’s because it allows JavaScript programmers to cosplay as “sYsTem PrOgrAmmers” - people who were always too dumb to learn C or C++ can finally write systems code! I work with a bunch of numbskull ex JavaScript devs now writing rust, dumbest of the dumb.

contrary to "political agenda" arguments, if memory safety wasn't a general concern to worry about, Rust wouldn't have been nowhere as relevant as today. Especially, if you want to make programs tend toward robustness as opposed to just crashing safely

@glcst @JesseStojan @Malix_Labs Give actual examples in modern C++ (not C) where it’s difficult. With RAII and smart pointers I never struggled, and for concurrency in C++ I always used structured concurrency so it wasn’t particularly tricky there either. And I’ve worked on enormous production code bases.

@JesseStojan @Malix_Labs I have written both C and C++ professionally for 20 years in Open Source projects you may have heard about. Memory management is freaking hard.
