Is there a disdain for Rust from the Mojo team?

https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/10/17/Rust-1.82.0.html Rust is also a pragmatic language. You can now put the safe keyword in unsafe extern block so that your clients don't need to litter unsafe in their codes.

Is there a disdain for Rust from the Mojo team?

Don't you think so? But they have no qualms for __moveinit__, even __takeinit__.

Is Mojo a general-purpose language? Or an AI language?

Yes @DanteOz thank you for sharing the obvious. I had read the content in the link long ago and still don't really agree with the direction of not having private struct fields in Mojo despite being a low level language.

Is Mojo a general-purpose language? Or an AI language?

But then again, Mojo also aspires to me a low level system programming language. It does not have private variables or visibility scoping. I find it difficult to reconcile how would such a low level language be effective without this feature. I guess at some point compromises have to be made between being compatible to Python and being a low level system programming language.

`if` Statement doesn't work??? :astonished:

Good day to you sir, thank you for checking in with your colleagues on this - I think it's pretty groundbreaking with how Mojo allows for direct interfacing with MLIR and allows developers to go wild with more compile time programming 🚀

`if` Statement doesn't work??? :astonished:

Thank you for your reply, that is an excellent explanation! I wonder how can one make use of IntLiteral to cast it into u69 at compile time then uses it at runtime with @nonmaterializable decorator.

Running twice gives error

i love your impl of array 2 comments 1. maybe you might want to separate out _rc as a type itself, so it can be reused by others 2. might consider making it threadsafe

Timeline for C/C++ Interop, FFI

I think it is truly amazing with how you're aiming what Mojo can be. 1. Runtime interoperability with Python interpreter. 2. Compile time evaluation with @parameter, @nonmaterializable and alias . 3. First class support for interfacing with lower level IR entities like MLIR. And even lower level support for SIMD. 4. Making it memory-safe without putting too much burden on the engineer, without a garbage collector (or at least on the Mojo side, not on the Python interoperability), without a lifetime annotation hassle (actually, a mess 😆) and hopefully without the engineer to remember calling free, lol.

Timeline for C/C++ Interop, FFI

Hey Chris, real interesting to hear the work on traits. Will it be more similar to Rust's traits or Golang's interface? Both are very similar but I am hoping we can have compile time constants embedded in traits (i.e. Rust's traits), this saves a lot of time at defining a constant associated to a set of behaviours. 😁
