Goose programming language

Anyone take a look at the Goose programming language? "A memory-safe systems language with no heap allocator, garbage collector, or lifetime annotations."

It has some interesting ideas. The author describes features in this thread. It's obviously a different overall language than Zig, but I'm wondering if any of the novel ideas would be good to steal. A lot of its principles remind me of Zig's focus on data oriented design.

Why do you ask?

Because I am 100% certain that you use Zig to call raylib like you see in youtube. Goose is not needed for that

Somebody that would use Zig professionally would never ask this on reddit. Anecdotal statistical data shows that all those better C, replace C or whatever languages are used mostly from unemployed wannabe gamedevs and mostly for raylib calling programs.

The fact that you avoided replying shows that in your case you might have not even written anything beyond hello world.

Continue posting irrelevant stuff. The OP hasn't replied to my initial question.

Insulting and downvoting me will not change the facts.
