"#ZigLang provides modern syntax, a great type system, complete control over memory allocations"
@lupyuen I'm giggling. A 3.5in floppy disk had 1.44MB of storage. It makes me feel old until the drive starts to read and I grab my chest. 
That sound, a dot matrix printer and a dialup modem were somehow tolerable back then. (They also ran on a few kilobytes of memory.)
It's impressive that development is still working on getting into such optimized roles.

"it is very well possible to run #NimLang code ... on small #Embedded microprocessors with only a few kilobytes of memory"

@thendrix Who knew the neighbor tasted that good? 
Yale's Department of Applied Mathematics just mathed against the machine so hard.

@thor Americans love Norwegians, a more robust people than the Sweedes. An accent that says I am content with having my own culture but I also have a large vocabulary.
@thor It would be rather boring to call England and ask about the weather. Tell them about your neighbor's daily walk over the local fjord and it would be nice to find them before the new year.
@thor You didn't call?
@thor Chechnia was a thing.

@freemo Tequila Tuesdays? Employees have to drink tequila from 0600 hours during the work day.
Thunderdome Thursdays? You sound like a good boss.
@thendrix It's also a civil war so all that Geneva bullshit goes out the window.
@thendrix I'd just let Texas learn that fighting off Mexico isn't something to brag about compared to The Union.
@freemo I would have said Engineers would use a hammer but I've met a few that make me wonder how many it would take to arrive at that idea. 
Hydraulic press.
@freemo I don't think it's possible because of our big brains. We all feed on death and it is delicious.
@Draven They also have cool mushrooms that follow them.
