Hare Programming Language

[@neshkeev]

Tsoding writes in C, but doesn't regard performance highly. Tsoding is an immensely experienced Haskell programmer, but doesn't like complicated abstractions) This person is enigma

[@moussaadem7933]

He loves simple languages like hare but he complains the standard libraries don't handle window management

[@denoww9261]

I can't speak for him but I think he values C for its simplicity more than its performance.

[@elgalas]

​@@denoww9261 I think he did say that once, on a Rust stream, can't remember which one though, I think he was printing trees

[@JaimePascual]

Do not mistake complicated by unnecessary abstractions. The only code that never fails is the one you never write.

[@oserodal2702]

IDK how to gauge this guy on what he actually thinks about modern programming languages. Like, for example, he's okay with Rust, but not Cargo and the Rust ecosystem at large, and would rather use rustc and Makefiles to build Rust. Maybe he's not heard of Go, but I'd imagine he probably dislikes the abstractions the language has, maybe even more so than in Rust or Haskell, or maybe programming in Go is just not as fun compared to C.

Finding this channel has made programming fun for me again. The bit at ~56:00 is such a good example of persistence and learned intuition paying off. I spent all of my uni days and and early career believing that the source code of languages and production grade tools were the domain of strange people with beards and tall pointy hats who lived in the basements of places like MIT. My early instructors and mentors simply failed to indicate to me that if I wanted to know more about a thing I could read its source and even build one. Its very motivational and just a lot of fun to watch this person dive in to all these different things, learning a lot, pushing through frustration, and most importantly, have a great time. I am grateful that he chooses to share it with all of us.

[@rupen42]

Honestly, "C with namespaces" is already a great selling point.

[@Maagiicc]

So did "C with classes," and look where that's ended up

[@portersky]

@@Maagiicc Have you seen GObject from glib? That shit be wild.

[@delibellus]

​@@Maagiicc that wasn't the only thing that made c++ so bad, and the rest aren't present in the development of hare

C with raii, generics and namespaces would be bussin

[@dnkreative]

Namespaces are actually BAD

[@Ash-qp2yw]

Learning how a library works by grepping around and reading the source code is a really useful skill -- I started a new job about a month ago and I've been basically learning how to use their primary library through a combination of grepping around, using breakpoints to see whats happening, and reading docstrings, and primarily the former. It's so good!

[@bearwolffish]

Once you can learn like this you are free to explore where you want.

[@joesenenfelder683]

CONGRATULATIONS ON 100,000 SUBSCRIBERS!!!!!! GOOD JOB! YOU ARE GOAT. BIG FACTS!!!!! Seriously appreciate your content.

[@Heater-v1.0.0]

I totally sympathise. Work sucks. I can only tolerate it if it is a programming project that fascinates me and actually has some useful purpose in the world. My current solution to this problem is to work with a few friends on a start up company doing things we have a passion for. The money sucks but at least we are not shackled to drudgery. Life is short, the is no time to waste working on meaningless tasks to make money for someone else

[@OneMilian]

Agree, i was fascinated with electronics my whole life and I always worked unrelated jobs, I always hated it. Having Aspergers makes it even harder to work jobs with no passion around people who dont hide the fact that they dont like me because im an exentric nerd

[@spacewad8745]

More power to you 💪 But with sick parents to look after in a country with no public healthcare, i am willing to sell my soul if the pay is well

[@Heater-v1.0.0]

@@spacewad8745 No, no, more power to you. I know what is to be in that kind of situation. Wishing you manage to find work that is satisfying and fulfilling as well as essential for you.

[@Heater-v1.0.0]

@@OneMilian That is a shame. So many places I have worked where people had passion for what they were doing and eccentric nerds were almost a majority. A lot of fun. It does so depress me though to work with people who have no passion for what they are doing, don't care what it does or what it is for. Just doing the hours and taking the salary with no pride or joy.

[@dawidkotlinski]

"make money for someone else" implies being a business owner is easy (after all, other people make money for you), but before that phrase you said money sucks when working in your own company, How so?

[@logyross6883]

You should try Odin too. Its literally in your name!

[@PRIMARYATIAS]

And it gives Raylib bindings directly with it, So no need to figure out how to link C stuff right away, Also it has Jai like syntax.

[@iWillAvert]

19:30 I would absolutely watch that! That's along the lines of how I am trying to approach learning programming and it has been helpful. I have at least hit a point now where I can write relatively competently in multiple languages and can understand what's going on in many others. You're definitely right; once you begin to understand programming, you can learn any language. It's all just syntax and built-in features.

[@lievenpetersen]

I'm really glad you left your story about how you make money in the vod, it was really nice to hear that :)

[@TheFailOrNot]

The hare devs really missed out on an opportunity with the file extension. I mean it could have been *.bun ...

[@ryansanta]

I would 100% watch that course. I might even pay something reasonable, but I'm not rly one to pay unless it provides something better than reading docs, youtube, and creating problem/solution projects from scratch. Your content is already extremely helpful for the overall programming mindset. I'm finally able to see a language for the first time and understand what's going on, and your thought patterns over multiple languages/projects has been essential. Thank you!

[@dmytro.sereda]

Tsoding, I'm voting for Odin lang! Try it please.

I second this!

[@adammontgomery7980]

Hahaha, this is exactly what he was yelling about. The language doesn't matter; the same concepts apply across languages.

[@raiguard]

I thoroughly enjoyed messing with hare, it's a shame that I can't use it for anything serious. It's such a fun little language! I wrote a small text editor using it.

[@TsodingDaily]

A text editor sounds pretty serious to me.

"the role of optimizing compilers in the majority of applications is kinda overrated" well said, loving it.

[@vinicius_xor_eax_eax]

the selling point of this language for me was the support on Windows: NO support and no plans for it

[@YahyaFalcon]

I guess that's a selling point if you're a free software purist

[@androth1502]

it's a selling point if you want to use a programming language that will never be widely adopted.

[@flatrute]

But it does not stop someone from forking/implementing the compiler for the language for Windows, yes?

[@YahyaFalcon]

@@flatrute yes, Case in point: there is a third party port to MacOS, a proprietary operating system.

[@maxrinehart4177]

Not really, that would mean it would never become mainstream and gain attraction. Windows used by a lot of people and corporations, supporting it would put this language ahead of tons other new programming languages.

[@matheuscapitani4701]

I would 100% buy the general programing course

[@demolazer]

Interesting take on abstractions. My dad has been a dev/architect for 30 years, and as I'm learning he has explained the importance of understanding first principles. Even though he's never written a word of Python, I explained how I was going to use a threading abstraction in my app and simply based on how he understands threading he explained how it wouldn't work and ended up being right! So the prediction of those that can do this being more important in the future is very interesting.

[@iglobrothers645]

I coudn't find any info about the general programming language. It would be awesome if you could make a course about programming in the general programming language

[@ivanjermakov]

Until somebody creates a programming language called General

[@alurma]

I hope this is a joke

[@daviarantes5325]

i swear to god if you made a course about programming in general, i could probably convince half of my entire university to watch it (please do it)

[@reddixskrull2451]

i think the reason why many people care about the language is because the abstractions made in languages. for example the abstractions made in the java ee environment are quite different from the abstractions made in c++. So if you litterally want to make money with programming you have to know the abstractions of an "trend" language and not just the idea behind programming. people need to eat, so they need to make money, they apply to a company, the company uses a specific language, the people need to learn the abstractions, the people learned a language.

It's pleasure to watch another interesting topic and get motivated for doing something cool just for fun. While people like you exists in this world i have a hope that all is not lost for us.

[@ruffianeo3418]

Question.... did Tsoding ever play with Knuths language, he invented for the series of books "The art of computer programming"? Did he implement it maybe? Or create a JIT for it? Or did Advent of Code in it? Would that not be a very Tsoding thing to do?

[@morganpigeron142]

hello Tsoding , (@40:35) you have also the language Odin ( C like ) that come out of the box with binding for popular lib like raylib. Wich is perfect for rapid prototyping and to rapidly setup on any computer (linux,windows , mac )

[@delibellus]

Saying that it's useless because it will never be widely adopted is thinking of programming languages as cryptocurrencies. Tsoding was right.

[@batlin]

18:00 yes! I always wondered about this. Started learning whatever programming languages I found interesting when I was a kid with a C64 and Atari ST, not thinking it was any kind of "career investment". The questions and tier lists of "what language to learn / ignore in 20XX" are really weird, like if musicians were posting videos like "DON'T learn piano in 2024... learn THIS instrument to stay relevant"

[@rojebd]

[@adammontgomery7980]

I would pay for a 'General Programming' course from you. I'm not a noob but, I suck at picking where to draw abstraction boundaries. I guess you'd call it architecture. I'm always amazed at how you take an idea, and get a prototype working so quickly.

So the issue you had at around 35:00 with the hare folder was that the executable is named after the parent folder, so creating a `hello` folder would have triggered the error.

[@charliegnu]

If you have an `a.out` folder and run `cc main.c` it will say errno=21 (EISDIR).

[@allyc0des972]

basically zig, at least hare has strong typing in the editor

But, could Hare have instead compiled to C and used Clang(LLVM IR?) or gcc instead of LLVM?
