This just in from #cat-v on oftc.net:
| <khm> lot of fucking armchair systems engineers on 9fans these days
| <qeed_> the old dont get better, they just atrophy past their peaks
| <sigrid> it's definitely a lot of opinions. all of them don't matter
| <khm> I don't know why I posted politely instead of just saing "if any
| of you assholes believed anything you are saying you would have done
| something by now"
| <sigrid> I propose we instead make xerox' Mesa native to 9front
| <sigrid> everybody's going to hate it, which is a good thing
I agree with Sigrid, and take back everything I've said about Zig: Mesa
is the way forward.

I look forward to end of the "what C needs is more bureaucracy" era of

I note that the linked discussion starts out with someone stating a
concrete goal which would justify porting a language to a platform, and
the following recommendation of V is primarily vibe-based. In my
experience, people run out of motivation to support the latter, and the
port decays and dies.
