Or Nim.
Ada is really good at making this kind of bit hacking very transparent. It might be interesting to create a Ada version of the examples in the Article to illustrate this. Even the Rust solution looks really messy compared to how Ada approaches this.
big yikes on this one, ada is often used by white supremacists
pretty sure white supremacists also use rust and c lmao
white supremacists use c but not rust, one of the many reasons rust is the perfect language
i can't really argue with that hehe
White supremacists use the Internet. Better drop off quickly before you get associated with them!
no, we must get rid of these white supremacists
fuck hate ✊🏿
OK and?
I'm pretty sure he's trying to "subtly" say I must be a white supremacist because I like well-designed programming languages over languages that were written.
lmao true
Is this a marketing spin? The software industry does not need more hype.
Note the extra-subtle spin of saying Ada programmers are white supremacists. For that extra goodness!
rust supports trans rights (human rights)
Rust is a programming language. Rust has literally no agency. Rust supports nothing. Please do stop trolling.
