This guy is seriously unhinged. The longer the article went on, the loonier he got. It takes a Seriously very unhealthy mental state to threaten legal action, claim to not have threatened legal action, claim to not even believe in justice, then actually take legal action in the same article.

Average rust dev
He can escape from Rust, but Rust cannot escape from him
Can remove the dev from the Rust, but never the Rust from the dev
I dont agree with his points, but "you are making the text liable for legal action to be taken against it" isn't a legal threat. Its actually a discussion about liability. Notice the wording. If the text isnt updated later, and it causes an issue that is serious, and he isnt protected via license, he could become liable. Thats why people put MIT licenses on their stuff even though they dont care how people use it. Its a legal "don't @ me" But otherwise, yeah. I dont like him either.
I find incredible how much drama programming langs can have.
EDIT: for those who wonder. I'm talking the drama AROUND the community, not the programming langs themselves.
Honestly, up till Rust it didn't really feel like there was a much at all. Everyone either used the language they liked or used multiple languages and just complained.
The problem is now the governing bodies for a number of new languages are run by crazy people and psychopaths.
There's absolutely no drama here. This person is inflating drama to the size of a house. A moderator didn't have the patience to politely ask someone to stop trolling and the result is a 2k word article about how justice isn't a thing.
Programming languages are formal languages with syntax and semantics definitions designed for carrying out computation tasks. Do you mean 'communities run by human beings' or simply 'human beings'? Otherwise it'll be like accusing your washing machine of being too lazy for not automatically collecting dirty clothes!
If it exists there is drama of it... wait, was that the rule?
@@mattymerr701 Recency bias is super strong with this one my guy...
Imagine having to work with the person who wrote this blog post
OP is such a crybaby... and his communication is passive aggressive, creating all of the drama
> threatens legal action
> claims not to have threatened legal action
> takes legal action
I lost brain cells reading that
The content in question causing the "legal threat" was an intro to how computers work. The author lacked serious talent, but, since kindness and consideration are foremost to the V community, things like this are allowed in and then are iterated on. At the end of the day it didn't even have value to be frank. A generative AI could have written better in about a minute with 2-3 iterations. Heck, it would have been better to just link to a tutorial. Lol.
@@ylluminate "Allowed in"? It did not sound to me like it was something he had asked for.
@@epajarjestys9981 you appear to be missing something in your understanding. I'm present in the community and would be happy to help clarify further if you'd like to understand this better.
@@ylluminate Seems pretty clear what he was asking. Was the content in question added without the original author's consent or not?
@@ylluminate Sure, please clarify and correct my understanding if I got something wrong. You do not have to ask for permission for doing something helpful.
dude literally witnessed one person get banned on admittedly somewhat dubious grounds and condemned them as fascists💀 and then even went on to rant about their own moral philosophy
Least egotistical discord chatter
I mean, it was not just a simple ban, it was a clear indication of a broader unwillingness to tolerate criticism or differing opinions.
I'd rather err on the side of not tolerating some dumb opinions than have the community discourse dominated by concern-trolls.
@@MachineYearning Not if it hurts future adoption
Nobody came out of this smelling of roses.
@@isodoubIet Please if I ever design a programming language and end up depending on terminally online debatelords to support its adoption rather than good language fundamentals and implementation, just take away my keyboard and ban me from society
"most external dependencies are riddled with unsafe blocks" - yeah, and? the closer you get to the metal (which is what the libraries are abstracting away) the more you have to dip into unsafe.
The alternative is to use languages in which **effectively everything is in an unsafe block**
Yeah, it makes me sad to see this argument. Rust has rule of least power, you can use unsafe, but you can get away without it for lots of stuff.
@@anon_y_mousse Actually, you are the one not understanding what I've been saying here and the parrot. It isn't about avoiding unsafe, it is about explicitly labelling unsafe. In any other language with no explicit statements, you don't know how much of the code is safe. Yeah, you can avoid doing unsafe stuff as implementation detail, that's obvious. But rust requires you to explicitly label it, just like mutability. So, as with everything in programming, it is a trade-off.
I guess you'll just argue about "being good" and "doing the right thing" every time. Yeah, good luck with that in the real world. Because as you can see every complex software ever written has only logic bugs, no safety related bugs ever, right?
Will using rust fix those safety bugs? No, and I never claimed that. But limiting scope of unsafe by explicitly declaration makes it more maintainable.
I don't know why you guys are so defensive in this topic. If you don't think rust is for you, just don't use it. You don't have to dunk in it, you don't have to call other people's takes "garbage parroting". Let me teach you a lesson: you are not the only software engineer in the world.
But the "just avoid writing unsafe code" didn't seem to have worked out that well historically by the amount of memory bugs in C or C++ which continue to be discovered.
@@anon_y_mousse the point is that the unsafe code is clearly demarcated, and the code outside of those blocks can be trusted to be safe. If I look at C++ code, I need to be constantly vigilant for unsafe operations - if I look at Rust code I only need to be vigilant in the unsafe blocks; everywhere else I can save that attention and brain power for actual productive work.
@@anon_y_mousse xd
29:25 The funniest thing is that the moderator was probably honest. If this guy ever managed a discord server, he'd know that not everyone gets server log reading permissions, and you certainly wouldn't want all your moderators to get it either. It's more of a part of the administrative permissions. So the only few people with admin permissions weren't online, a mod answered, and this guy went like "omg vlang is communist!"
Unlikely. Alex Medvednikov, is the V-lang author.
I've been alternatively a moderator, administrator, and owner of various Discord servers of up to like a few thousand members in years past. I fought for audit log permissions to be granted to @everyone It's absolutely insane to think that a moderator of all people would be denied those perms though
@@MH_VOID The thing with audit permissions is that it makes it easy to peek at private channels. Even if you don't know most of what's happening, you can know their names and their permissions. If your server doesn't have private channels it's less of an issue.
(to be clear, not all mods are the same to me, but if there's no difference between a founder/admin and a mod in your book it makes sense to give them the audit log permissions).
@@pastenml Not that one I'm talking about. The only one that's mentioned as "a moderator" in the article didn't have any username mentioned.
@@Exilum and? Those private channels should really be readable (and reaction-addable) to the average joe. Sure, they're unfortunately usually not (and somewhat understandable in the case of e.g. private keys being shared there or stuff like that - though that's really a case of laziness), but they should be. Merely being able to see the names and perms of the channels is no problem whatsoever, no matter how much you are abusing those private channels.
And mods and admins are different in my book - mods don't have the channel deletion, creation, bot adding, et cetera permissions , sometimes only have kick, not ban perms (or more like, only a senior mod or a dedicated 3-strike bot has ban perms), and their job is basically just to keep things civil and get rid of spammers and the like, whereas admins can physically do pretty much anything and usually don't use their powers for anything besides the occasional channel management, pinned message, and so on, typically doing other server (or outside the server duties) duties, though sometimes being moderators themselves, and of course muting, banning, and so on if they happen to see a situation where it's called for (they don't actively look for that - that's the moderators' job).
but to be honest, I also kinda feel this guy. I had situations in my coding life when I also got a slap in the face, things were not going the way I imagined, maybe even I was right, but the way I handled the situation was terrible and only made everything worse. thanks god I haven't later decided to write a huge article about it and it's only in the memory of max 5 people.

&u8 is literally a reference/pointer to a single character, which fits with char * but is not really a string.
agreed with this.
it was strange to see that one
Thanks, as a non-ruster that's what I thought that was
A character; not an 8-bit unsigned integer?
u8 is a byte, but chars are utf-8 encoded in Rust so I don't think you can say it is the same thing. Just because many chars can be represented by a byte does not mean they all can. This is why a String, while "literally just a Vec", cannot be assumed to be a vec of chars.
@@mikkelens it's a bit nitpicking, considering char is used in the original, but that's synonymous with a byte. So the match is exact, and it matches exactly an ASCII character, but of course it doesn't match exactly a UTF-8 character, which is also kinda why we don't call it char anymore. (that's why e.g. Go has a byte and a rune type instead nowadays)
I can totally understand the vlang guys just being fed up at this point with trolls who don't offer constructive criticism. If I were a moderator who even agreed with the banned guy, I still would have banned him.
would you specify ban reason (article author wanted ban reason)?
@@RandomGeometryDashStuff He implied V lang wasn't useful and it was almost snarky. Even then, at the end of the day, its a discord ban. Get some fresh air.
I have never seen any trolls in any of my discord groups. Maybe just v lang things then?
@@alltech9096 there’s trolls every now and then but people usually pay no mind or they get banned quickly.
@@alltech9096bro must not be using the same Discord the rest of us are. You have never seen a troll in any discord group ever?
I just think to myself how this is even relevant to a programming language...
these are facts
i love the idea of v lang though. but at the end of the day, go... well go is just there
Nice things are nice. Nice things don't cause drama. People make nice things, but people do cause drama.
@@ThePrimeTimeagenthis is it. There’s enough differences that I will probably recommend V over Go once V becomes a stable language, but only to people who haven’t learned Go already. There’s really no point if you already do Go programming.
This guy just need to hear “it’s not that deep brah” He was in a programming language discord not the Third Reich
Isn't he Russian though? Girkin was a White fan and given the USSR flags on some tanks there are also Red fans invading their neighbor to purge it from "brainwashed Russians" according to infamous Russian neo-Nazi Alexey Milchakov.
I was entertaining the authors thoughts until I saw the wall of text he posted in discord and i immediately knew he was wrong. Funny he thought that would support his argument. The part after that was clinically insane.
There's a fine line between genius and insanity.
I don't know what vlang is but I am happy to be here
one day we will get a Social Network style movie about an open source community
This is why I stay away from Discord groups. Never felt the need to be in a little "community" when I use a language.
The idea that you aren't allowed to make a video without knowing everything about a topic sounds like the person is just admitting "I don't want to think critically because it makes my brain hurt, so I'm going to just absorb your opinion so please know everything for me so I know everything by extension"
What if the audience are a bunch of impressionable kids/teens?
#thinkofthechildren
It’s also indicative of the mentality of whoever comments that that they believe someone is capable of knowing everything down to a tiny minutiae of a subject
Just state what is merely your opinion, and what you're unsure about, and then you don't need to be a total expert at everything talked about to talk
@@web then admitting that you don't know the way prime did is the best possible thing you can do for them because the best thing for the kids is to learn critical thinking

V has a history and reputation of having a bunch of promises on its home page it didn't follow through on. I think that's far less true now that time has passed and it has had time to actually implement its promises, but I can see why they would be super defensive.
agreed with this statement
Has it though? Autofree doesn't work at all apparently, there's tons of undefined behaviours despite promises to the contrary, and there's still no V Doom port we were promised in 2020.
Its not even v 1.0 so I wouldn't give a frick.
So you are defending them based on their not delivering on promises?

I am not sure anyone knows the meanings of words anymore.
I went and pre-read the article before watching and I'm glad prime agrees... I don't really think this is anything. I think OP is just a bit of a putz and got on the nerves of moderation because he came in hot, already annoyed with expectations that don't match reality. We've all had run ins with moderation for personal disagreements... the difference is we don't all resort to ranting in our blogs and baselessly calling others fascists. I feel like there is a larger than average chance the author's hair color is not one found in nature.

You speak about OCaml 5 as though its release is in the future, but the latest version at this time is 5.1.0 and that was released in september this year. Am I missing something?
I'm also a bit disappointed having realised I just watched a 40 minute video about V and learnt nothing about V.
Love the Zig shout out in the beginning! Been doing it for AoC and I'm really enjoying using the language
Just can't get into the syntax for Zig. The language doesn't feel ergonomic.
@@ylluminate fork and create Zygthon
@@izy931 I think it's called V. 😀
@@ylluminateZig's tradeoff is that it's extremely explicit and thus easier to read.
Reading code is always a lot harder than writing it, so it's a reasonable decision
@@mgord9518 and thus why V is better in this regard. V is very ergonomic. You should give it a try. The community is awesome too - feels a lot better than Rust and Zig in my experience.
There are a lot of Rust crates in the embedded world that have TONS of unsafe code, but that is because it is working at the hardware level.
Pascal is probably the most environmentally friendly language. You could compile it to native code in milliseconds on a 486.
I saw Benchmarks for Pascal and they looked very good. This language seriously is a Powertool to get things going and might be the greenest of them all. It might be so green it turns red because it overflows
Borland wrote the compiler in assembler, and it was wicked fast, used to run it on a 10Mhz 286 and it was fast.
The amout of CO2 produced by my frustrations about the software written in Delphi (which is Pascal) at my work is astronomical. And the number of crashes and hangs of RAD Studio.
There was some 'fun' drama recently in the Nixos community over someone's picture of literal beef on their profile page.
Someone should tell the author that calling someone a fascist in a blog post is more legally actionable than their copyright argument
damn i thought that's the same word used on American TV every day
Not in the US. Here, defamation requires that the subject of the defamation has not made himself a public figure, and it requires the defamatory remarks to be made against a specific person rather than a group. It is a very difficult standard to meet in the US.
It would be easier in the UK since their government rejects the concept of free speech -- they are somewhat notorious for the ease with which defamation cases can be won there. Idk about other countries.

People like this pop up pretty often in discord and other messaging platforms regarding anything technical. The thing is, they're usually teenagers or young adults who haven't had enough exposure to the real world or developed communication skills, likely from not leaving the house or surrounding themselves with like minded people or being in echo chambers.
Seems to me the reason this guy doesn't join any online communities, is because he doesn't understand how they work... comparing basic content moderation to literal fascism is completely delusional lol

This guy sounds annoying to deal with. He saw one moderation action he didn't agree and cut ties so hard he demanded his history with project be expunged. Then he went nuclear with a DCMA takedown notice. It seems like he just wants a project to match his very particular ideology.
That was a lot farther than I would have expected.
Golang's ecosystem with Vlang's added features is the dream of any minimalist dev alive
Yes this would be awesome. Best part is V still has the chance to steer itself in that direction but I highly doubt it will get there.
Great, now articles and tutorials about JS will need to change their article names to JakartaScript to avoid being baned.
Breaking up your huge rust project into several smaller, more manageable crates is, apparently, really hard... And bitching about compile times is, evidently, easy.
@@anon_y_mousse if your problem is what to do in 30 sec build - stand up and do some stretching, it helps!
As someone that's been in the V community on and off since 2019, I'd say a lot of this is just like Prime banning the guy off the top.
The community is a bit tired of being constantly raided by bots with literal hate speech, the 'just use lang-x', 'why even bother, if blah exists', 'i stopped in and saw one rand comment [by someone that later got warned/muted/banned], so the whole server must be that way'.
The V community is an amazing place to learn and share thoughts, but they are a GLOBAL community. What you, and i, find offensive is a tease or not even a thing to another country. Do you get upset in a online game when you see Brazilians say 'kkk'? Then check yourself cause they're laughing and may not even know about the Klan. I think a lot of folks forget this.
My interpretation from interacting w/ him for years is that Alex tends to be more blunt, to the point on things, and doesn't feel like he has to explain everything when he thinks it's obvious (not saying good or bad on that, just is). He's doing what he thinks is best to promote the well-being of the language, but is fallible.
Anyone that's interested in joining, learning, and being a part of a great global community is more than welcome. I recommend the Discord or GH as that's where most of the core team and developers hang out. My only suggestion, for everything in life really, is: Come in with the respect you want to be shown.
I want to share that my incremental compile times are 8 minutes.
6:30 You're confusing "wide" with "deep". In languages/APIs, I think of wide as many exposed features to express complex things, and deep as a small number of features that can be used to express complexity. Example: c++ is wide (and deep, because c), lisp/scheme are deep (and narrow).
Can confirm, 2/3 of my house electric bill goes toward compiling serde
All this did was get me wanting to try V
Maybe the problem is for this situation is in the software system that allows rewriting history and removinvg any trace of massage without log and backtracking
Autohotkey has a javascript layer, why has that not been taken down then?
"I can't program anymore because they deleted a discord message!"

It's better to separate the art (the lang) from the artist (the committee)

But luckily that ain't the case this time. Or most times.
I can sum up the blog post in one sentence: "Good people always agree with me. Bad people never do."
36:18 to be fair I think some social animals have a rough sense of justice too, dogs for example seem to have various ways to correct each other’s behaviours (normally involving biting) and some sort of tolerance and forgiveness for misbehaviour within the “pack” up until a certain point.
And we’ve all seen guilty looking dogs before 😅
"goodbye 1", "goodbye 2", "goodbye 3". If you gotta say "goodbye" that many times you wore out your welcome a long time ago
@1:30 Okay we're literally not even two minutes in and I heavily disagree with the author. All those strings exist for very good reasons and they naturally emerge the moment you try to make a language that
- has strings which don't suck
- has compatibility with the OS and existing low level code
- has a concept of accessing strings without copying
that's really just it. You ask for those three basic things and you can't do better than Rust. The only thing you could do to simplify it is decide that you're not supporting unicode by default, but even then, you probably want to provide an easy way to deal with unicode-containing strings as they become increasingly ubiquitous, so all you've done is swap Vec to be the default and String to be the fallback when you need utf8. This is effectively the route Zig takes, providing standard library functions to work with utf8 strings but saying that if you want a string it's just an array of bytes.
Rust is a language that lets you go low level and that means you need all of String and Vec and CString and OsString, and their non-owned counterparts are a necessity as well. It's really not that hard to understand either: you just use String/str (which granted is non-trivial but is also just a part of Rust's fundamental ownership model) and forget about the others. If you need the others, you probably know what they are and exactly when or why you need them.
Like. They're not similar things. You have Strings and you have special cases. I dunno what the complaint about converting between them is. Sure, the exact conversion rules differ between them because they _represent different things and thus can fail in various directions._ But it's really not that hard. You want to get from a CString to a String? Well, `.to_str()` if you just want a view into the CString or `.into_string()` if you want to convert it to a full string. I'm sure there are `TryFrom` implementations in various directions or whatever too. Not that I know these things in detail because these fancy string types aren't actually needed frequently, but it's not that hard?
Yeah, people expecting one string to rule them all is nonsense. Those strings are there because that's a lesson learned from the past. People managing their own string implementations is, most of the time, not good and error prone.
@@yokunjon Yeah. There is a canonical String which you should use all the times except the times where you have a reason to use one of the others. Because Rust is a language that provides low-level control, if you want to use low-level interfaces-like system calls-or interop with C code, you can do that. But if you're going to do that, instead of using high level wrappers around that stuff which usually exist, you need to speak the language of those things. There's no magic. Either there's a high level wrapper, or you need to speak the language of the low-level tool, and Rust broadly has wrappers but also lets you talk directly to the low-level when needed.

Just an FYI i am 99% sure that any US(some other countries too) trademark also gets rights over domain name by default.
IIRC it's a bit messier: ICANN has a *policy* to give domains to organizations with a trademark, eg Oracle gets oracle.some-tld, but not javascript.some-tld. But I barely remember, so who knows!
@@SimonBuchanNz Sorry I could have been more clear. This has nothing to do with ICANN, it is a part of trademark law. Every trademark has this by default.
Even if external dependencies were riddled with unsafe blocks, which I highly doubt, that doesn't automatically mean that code is unsafe, if that were the case then all code in C and C++, and probably quite a few other languages would automatically be unsafe as well.

Dude, I love your stuff.
I get the incremental complaint, I really do.
But very few compiled (none that I know of/use tbh) languages *don't* require an incremental/entire recompile of the project when making a small change. Hell, the linux kernel needs to be entirely recompiled with a whole new f**** symbol table just to add print statement in a subsystem.
It is a arguable "plus" of interpreted langs / scripting langs.
Wow, that's a lot of emotions in a story. And that's the point, basically it's not about programming at all. And also with that "justice" thing in the story. It's not that important here. Also not the technical difficulties like compile times with the Rust programming which he wrote about.
It's really normal when people are very emotional that things they say or write are not always logically fine tuned anymore.
I also feel bad for the guy and he is just disappointed how things go, and he is just a really sensitive and honest person with that.

I too don't care for Rust or any of these other "fancy" languages that claim to "save the world". I was on this guy's side, up until the self-own with the discord chat log and everything after that. I understand what the situation is now... The guy is actually nuts.
It surprised me that people don't know what the "green" part comes from. It was a "study" done to see how much power was used by separate languages given the same task.
The problem here is that too many lang forums are becoming communities, rather than sources of information and clarity.
People are now adopting these langs with some unnecessary expectations. In the event that the language itself used some concerning terminology or the main facets of its ecosystem did as such I can understand ending adoption of the language.
Being in a constant state of assessing the community to this degree will likely result in the OP struggling to adopt a language.

Lol the link to the article isnt in the description, I can only assume that this tool asked it to be removed lmaoo
cant believe i'm not the only one who kinda idly selects stuff and leaves out the first and last letter
sir this is a wendy's
30:24 he actually slept before sending the papyrus
DISCORD DRAMA the article holy fuck
Interesting conflict emerges from this situation. If a contributor comes to project leaders asking to remove contributions they made, is it ok to refuse? It might even be consequential for a project to remove it since some later work by other contributors might be based off of theirs. Interesting, but I'm taking the side of the V lang author. I believe that since contributing is your own will, you should not expect your work to be treated as your own rights for it, rather as a collaborative effort. Simple analogy would be to ask to refund a donation...
🚑 OP needs to call the wambulance
One of my all time favorite development experiences was doing a desktop app using Lua on a game engine. The game engine did a lot of the heavy lifting on functionality and the Lua language surface area is so tight that there practically zero architectual debate. You just code and quality is what you put in. You can "follow OO" if you want by just passing object reference as the first param and naming consistently. Or just be procedural and architect by naming and splitting code to files as it makes sense.
I wonder why the first half of the article was spent on rust. Justification of the act through bandwagon?
11:52 why 2 was?
alright that's it I'm making C##
