| I haven’t tried C3 myself, but I happened to interact a lot with Christopher Lerno, Ginger Bill and multiple Zig maintainers before. Was great to learn that C3, Odin and Zig weren’t competing with each other but instead learn from each other and discuss various trade-offs they made when designing their languages. Generally was a very pleasant experience to learn from them on how and why they implemented building differently or what itch they were scratching when choosing or refusing to implement certain features. |

| > weren’t competing with each other but instead learn from each other What is the difference? Using polite words to communicate? |

| ▲ | impoppy 4 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Competing with each other would be trying to one-up each other feature-wise, whereas what I have witnessed was things like discussing trade-offs made in different languages and juggling around ideas on if some feature from language A would make sense in language B too. | |

| ▲ | card_zero 4 days ago | parent [-] | | It isn't even true. https://xkcd.com/357/ "Head over heels" is another weird idiom. I'm so in love, I'm standing in a normal orientation. | | |
| ▲ | atombender 4 days ago | parent [-] | | "Head over heels" is actually a corruption of "heels over head". It's one of those corruptions which flips the meaning (ironically, in this case!) on its head, or just becomes meaningless over time as it's reinterpreted (like "the exception that proves the rule" or "begs the question"). |
