       @bugaevc Is Vala supposed to be my favourite language? Last time I used it, it was simple domain-specific language for Gtk apps. It was not "safe", nor it probably should be, due to performance constraints.So I guess I'll keep using Python where it makes sense.

       @bugaevc Yeah, I know. It has rather nice string abstraction for being C-ish. But last time I check, it was not "safe" -- you could confuse it and get segfaults.Plus, really, Vala is not a language in a same way Python or Rust is. I would not recommend it inside kernel, for example.For Gtk, Python support is pretty cool, but I'd really like to see better Rust support. Not easy, I know, but Rust is well-known high-performance language.
