What do they actually want? I'm so curious.

I'm not sure on this. Rust has some users all over big tech firms including Google, MS, FB, Apple and Intel.

I seriously doubt that whether any of their “end users” are allowed to use Rust.

Well, I'm gonna make some excuses and questions. - I was worried about Google's intention, but I didn't claim one. - I chose the word "fork" because it was what actually happen. I …

How do you know the intention of a fork without their own explanation? It was unknown at the point of posting, and posting title is still technically valid. This posting let you kn…

Does it feel differently? "fork" as a noun and a verb? No offense, just a question. Because I'm not a native English speaker.

I see your point. Thank you for your opinion, and I don't agree. Please see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15701539 for why.

Made-up title? Github says "google/swift forked from apple/swift". Is that wrong?

I also worried having two different languages -- Google Swift and Apple Swift.

What you have to deal with; * Xcode = iOS bugs + UIKit bugs * Xamarin = iOS bugs + UIKit bugs + different runtime, language, memory model abstractions + .NET bugs + P/Invoke bugs &…

Can I ask the products you have worked on with Xamarin?

Such cross platform apps are meaningful only if your product doesn't need great UX. But the question is, if your app doesn't need it, why do you need a native app? It's better stic…

What if we combine this with AI?

I believe you're going to learn a new language for future problems, and I strongly recommend Rust. If your performance (throughput and latency) requirement is not very critical, la…

I feel like Apple software quality has been degraded because I always expected kind of top and flawless. It has been and must be to keep its position. As far as I remember, in earl…

I think Nim author need to documentate/explain/illustrate a lot more about its GC. I once have interested in Nim, but I couldn't figure out how its GC is proper (predictable & dete…

I disagree to optimisation, but agree to portability. It's difference of 100% and 99%, but sometimes the 1% can be significant. And of course, it also can be insignificant.

Swift is just a fresh new language which is compiled statically just like C/C++. Swift's Objective-C compatibility mode is a kind of ugly extension feature to support their legacy …

The best way for this is avoiding Storyboard. DVCSs are designed for full error-tolerenceable text based source files. It requires the files are fine to be broken (e.g. for compile…

more open? what a funny joke i ever heard. please define the meaning of the more , and at least tell who is the more open one.
