bring your own implementation for hashtables? not even in std? damn
Yeah, it’s like they looked at Go and said, “You know what the real problem was with the lack of generics in Go? They made an exception for lists and maps!”
Why?
The description doesn’t really say what it does differently. Which I assume is the reason someone would create a language. How does it differ from C etc.?
This blog entry explains its motivations.
They were angry at Go so they made it worse and incompatible with Windows or macOS. Perfect!
Looks like that’s answered in the docs: https://harelang.org/documentation/faq.html
have no package manager and encourage less code reuse as a shared value
Also, its main goal is understandability, but some stdlib is written in assembly. I mean, this looks like a nice but very niche language, for some small endeavours maybe?
I suppose hare may be nice in environments where the entire tool-chain needs to be audited.
Besides vibe I don’t really understand what niche it fills but, I’m not that smart. Syntax looks cool tho
