>closed source language
umm no thanks
Bingo. Intended to make "parts" of it open source. Why even bother?
I'd take a reliable closed-source project over a sloppy open-source one any day.

Fair enough.
I believe they plan to open-source it eventually, like Chris Lattner did with Swift.
Good for them. I'll not be using it until it's open sourced
Give it some time to mature.
It took two decades for python to become popular so I expect a decade at least, hopefully and optimistically
A comparison to Swift/Objective-C interop would be a much more fair one.
No sane company would adopt closed-source language, nobody in academia is gonna use a language which does not even support open(). they will be rather ported to Rust rather than weird "superset"

Using nim, the superior language that doesn’t need memes
Not a joke. But what’s the purpose of Nim. What does it do that would make people want to use it? All I’ve heard is that it has a “tunable GC” is that it ?
>But what’s the purpose of Nim. What does it do that would make people want to use it?
NTA, but also a nimmer. As a language it doesn't have a domain it focuses on or a killer application. It's a comfy general purpose programming language with a couple nice features (e.g. great macro support and UFCS) that make the syntax more expressive, it compiles to native code and has good performance. I used it for personal projects and some small CLI utilities at work and I've never felt I had to switch to another language. It's not like other languages couldn't achieve the same results, but I struggle to find another language that hits the same sweet spot in the comfiness-performance tradeoff
