I'm hearing this language just beat C, C++, Rust, Go and pretty much everything else. Is that true? The more I read about it the more it seems like the true winner of the programming languages of the 2000s.

never saw a benchmark where it was the case. I don't really pay attention to lang shills because they never have answers for what lacks in their language. the answer to what you should use just depends on the project and what sucks the least for the solution. other than that everything sucks at something. this is something any software engineer should come to terms with after 5+ YoE

>>106465531
I constantly see people lying about that too or more likely they're comparing it to C++ written like Java

No. It's irrelevant and always will be.

in generally being best with all the plus vs. minus in the universe

nim seems pretty fast in comparison

I'm gonna start using this now. I've been thinking about Rust for some time but never started with it. I then thought about Odin but it seems too new. Zig has stupid name and reminds me of russians. Go seems to have unnecessary shit overall. C# is Microsoft shit. Java has the worst communities. Kotlin is good but you have to deal with Java libraries which is stupid. It's obvious that I will not be learning any more C or C++ since I'm not trying to cram the best software into the smallest device thinkable. I will go with Nim and make the best software in the world.

Maybe in a vacuum, but the libraries, tools, code samples, autocompletion support etc. are just as important if not more important than the language itself.

>>106465531
supposedly 'ok', sure but beats, no

Buy an ad or stop being dumb.

Too many words to write "Julia"

what comparison? you know what, I don't care. way to prove my point retard

>>106466138
in comparison to C and rust in benchmarks

>>106466088
I'm trying to avoid GC

>>106465921
I use Odin for all my personal projects. I used it to learn how to do Raytracing following that Raytracer in a weekend website and the language generally stayed the fuck out of my way, which is nice given all the bullshit you have to deal with in C++ and Rust.

not once was any benchmark posted and I'll bet it's a cherry picked one. nim probably has trouble in other cases and you never talk about what the negatives of using nim might be. you still aren't looking at the larger picture which just makes you another annoying nocoder
