How about v-lang? https://vlang.io/ Not python, but, go-like syntax, and satisfies other stuff you mentioned. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

Somewhat similar language, https://vlang.io It’s a mix of go and rust syntax that translates to C. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

Language explorers looking for lower level languages like this may also want to take a peek at the V language. https://vlang.io/ I won't say with confidence either is better than the other; but I think both are worth a look. Odin (iiuc) always makes you manage memory; Vlang permits you to, but does also have linking to the Boehm GC that it will generate for you in most cases. Vlang and Odin in terms of syntax and... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

There are other choices of languages, that are close to and influenced by Golang. Languages such as Odin[1] and Vlang[2] (which addresses several issues mentioned). Even more, they are at the stage where advance programmers can contribute or influence them in the ways that they might find satisfactory. Golang is too far down the road and cemented in its ways, to expect such significant changes in direction. [1]:... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

> For me the biggest gap in programming languages is a rust like language with a garbage collector, instead of a borrow checker. https://vlang.io. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

«Please shut up and take my money». Jokes aside - can’t wait. Your book The Lean Startup helped me so much. I read it tens of times. It’s one of the reason I got great traction with mine startup https://playcode.io - AI App Builder on our custom cloud. Thank you Eric. - Source: Hacker News / 23 days ago

I built a complete clone if fly.io infrastructure: VMs, networks, etc. So I have my Vercel on bare metal machines to maintain full-stack apps on https://playcode.io. It took more than a year. - Source: Hacker News / 24 days ago

I completely rebuilt this sync engine + orm with relations, lazy loading etc, using Vue + Pinia in https://playcode.io. Google Linear’s videos, they explained in detail their architecture. Yes, I spent a few months. But it worth it. Every new field, model I need to add, it is so straightforward. I do love frameworks and foundations. They make live easier later by a lot. - Source: Hacker News / 25 days ago

Don’t get me wrong, but 7K LoCs means it is still an early attempt to make a coding agent. It starts easy “ah it can edit and read files!”, but it requires a lot of extra effort to make properly for many edge cases, especially caching, price optimizations, etc. I’ve been implementing custom coding agent in https://playcode.io for 3 years already. Far beyond of 7K LoCs. So when you compare to “shitty slow” Claude... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

- k8s is insane peace of software. A right tool for a big problem. Not for your toys. Yes, it is crazy difficult to setup and manage. Then what? - cloud has bad and slow disk. BS. They have perfectly fast NVME. Something else? That’s it. Why I am so confident? I used to setup and manage kubernetes for 2 years. I have some experience. Do I use it more? Nope. Not a right tool for me. Ansible with some custom Linux... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago
