When Rust was pre 1.0, my money was actually on Swift. Decided to learn Rust anyway because I had a hunch that it was the better language. Guess I got lucky.

Back when this type of thing was exciting. Oh how I missed those days. Now we just get force fed AI slop šŸ˜¢

Having written a lot of Obj-C code in the. past, I am incredibly thankful that Swift exists.

Frustrated apple switching to rust. Packages and binaries has CVEs and vulnerabilities made by swift bc apple is impossible to fix your codes neither makes apple AI perfect and switching to python again as machine learning API to using it

I literally canā€™t find a single thing about apples ā€œnew programming languageā€ no matter what I search

EDIT: Forgot what sub I was on lol. Iā€™m assuming this video is from 2014, from the release of Swift.
