DeVault: Announcing the Hare programming language

> I think that's an overstatement that kinda dilutes your general point.

Maybe with “thousands” part. But there definitely have been tens and, depending on how you would count them, hundreds of languages which were expressly designed to be a “better system language than C”. All these C++, Objective C, D and lots and lots of other languages were designed as “C replacements”. Yet they all failed at replacing C.

Which means that remaining C programmers need something extremely compelling to switch. Rust offers that (although it's not clear if that theoretical offer is nice enough in practice), Swift does that, too (although it's an Apple language thus highly unlikely to ever be widely used outside of Apple's ecosystem). Hare? Nope.

Bunch of cosmetic improvements without a clear explanation why it's better than C or hypothetical BoringC/FriendlyC.
