Nim Versions 2.0.4 and 1.6.20 released
Glad to see that the windows executables are working again.
I had tried a little while ago to test things out on my windows machine after seeing the NimForUE project (https://github.com/jmgomez/NimForUE) and was sad to see that my computer would auto-mark any nim binaries as malware and delete them. I wasn't too invested so I just shrugged rather than looking for too many workarounds.

Unity plan pricing and packaging updates
For people scared off by C++ and who want faster recompile times, check out the Nim bindings [0]. Check out his Twitter/X account [1] for plenty of cool things it brings to the table.

Ask HN: Why did Nim not catch-on like wild fire as Rust did?
I started using Nim because i wanted to port some of machine learning models written in python with the idea of making them more portable. It was a lot of work as community is relatively small and a new user would end up writing a lot of code.
But Nim has a pretty solid standard library with clearly written code and an awesome community to help with problems. I generally read a lot of standard library code to expand my knowledge of language and discover common patterns which repeat themselves in a lot of real world problems.
C inter-op is really first class, and as far as i know it has one of best C++ inter-op as well, you can take a look at: https://github.com/jmgomez/NimForUE for a real world example.
I use Nim for my work in both professional and personal capacity and also have written about some of it at https://ramanlabs.in/static/blog/index.html

Anybody still trying to make Godot 4.X bindings?
I've switched over to Unreal and helped out with NimForUE early on. If you have any interest in Unreal, you should check it out since it's in a really good state. It does assume knowledge of Nim, Unreal, and C++ to really get the most out of it.

Purpose of NimScript vs nim
In NimForUE, we ran into issues with nimble early on, so we resorted to using nim for the build scripts because we needed to do code generation gymnastics to work with Unreal's build system and Nim's C++ codegen. The Nim compiler has had some patches since we first worked on the build system, so maybe if we had to do things over again we could go back to NimScript.

Epic’s Verse Programming Language Reference
They would be better off just paying the guy developing NimForUE some money and making it first-party.

Gwion ( https://github.com/Gwion/gwion ) is a programming language that I intended to use in my musical work. It has grown past the hobby music lang, and now has users, a company using it, is semantically much more evolved than it's predecessor (ccrma's chuck) and also more performant. Would be happy to talk more about it

What are some languages with custom operators? Preferably strongly statically typed languages
my lang has custom operators. only binary ops can be wild tho. https://github.com/Gwion/Gwion

Want a technical writing project!!!
I have a nice project badly needing documentation. But tbh there's no way you can get paid for that atm. Still it's a nice way to show off your skills. https://github.com/Gwion/Gwion

Anybody else doing #genuary with sound? Here's my take on the Rule 30 Cellular Automaton.
Didn't know about that. What did you use to create this? Could be of use to test my language, Gwion.
