Hare seems interesting, but does it allow any kind of dynamic linkage? I just compiled a simple Hello World program, and its size is 217 kb - after stripping.

$ cat test.ha
use fmt;

export fn main() void = {
        fmt::println("Hello world!")!;
};

$ file test
test: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, stripped
$ ls -lhn test
-rwxr-xr-x 1 1000 1000 217K Feb 27 18:03 test

I am called a srnior developer and I haven’t done a project in my spare time in many years. Not because I don’t want to, but because I do enough of that at work and I lack the energy. Most people I know are in the same boat.

Proud of today’s code. Deeply ashamed of yesterday’s code. That is our lot in life. At least it shows us our development.

Eh. If you are not using punch tape, are you even really programming?

That’s a bee, love.

What you described sounded a bit like Babylon 5, so I felt the need to reply with a quote from one of its more famous denizens, Vorlon Ambassador Kosh.

And so it begins.
