I've got hooked into Odin. It makes more sense for a C programmer than any other new systems language.

I'm also in process of rewriting ReadSeek CLI. If I had been aware of it I would have used from the get go.

It's easier to maintain in long-term because Odin, like C, does really change.

And I can't really pull all CPU juices for inference with Rust or the code just becomes quite nasty because you have to delibetary disable "rusty stuff". I get FFMPEG developers by heart.

@jan yeah, and long-term open source project a decent choice. rust code base requires constant attention, which is disturbing.

@jarkko will definitively give a try, looks like graphics and GPUs are first class citizens. And looks like pretty easy lang to pickup on first sight.

@jarkko absolutely, there are great modern languages but if things are changing from version to version I am running away, it will give pain to my hobby projects maintenance.
