    I'm long time fan of programming languages that compiles to C hoping that one day will fall in love with one endlessly! :-)

  • rust in kernel?
    1 project | /r/freebsd | 3 Mar 2023
    If we need a higher-level language in the kernel, it should be a copyfree-licensed language. Lua is already the language of choice for in-kernel scripting. There are many languages that compile to C (Nim, V, Chicken Scheme, etc), which makes them just as fast but a lot less bloated than Rust.
  • Is there any alternatives to Clang?
    1 project | /r/openbsd | 26 Jan 2023
    Sadly the best alternative to Apache-licensed LLVM is still LLVM version 8 (the last version under the original license). It should continue to compile well-written C programs (including everything in BSD base), as well as languages that compile to C (Nim, V, Chicken Scheme, etc). But newer C++ features, new hardware support, and ever-improving optimizations would not be available. This would result in a growing number of ports pulling in the latest LLVM/clang as a dependency...

  • What softwares do you recommend to a daily use BSD system?
    6 projects | /r/BSD | 11 Aug 2022
    I still use llvm80 (8.0.1_7) (mainly as the Nim / V / Chicken / etc backend), because it's the last Copyfree version, before the switch to Apache license.
