Jamie GaskinsI just noticed that Crystal 1.13.0 is out!These release notes are great. My personal faves: - ✨UUID v7 support✨ - Some atomic operations like mutexes and Channels on ARM CPUs are faster - JSON parsing is up to 150% faster for large payloads - More groundwork laid for multithreading<a href="https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/releases/tag/1.13.0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/releases/tag/1.13.0</a><a href="https://zomglol.wtf/tags/Crystal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Crystal</a> <a href="https://zomglol.wtf/tags/CrystalLang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CrystalLang</a>

postmodern<a href="https://defcon.social/@thedarktangent" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@thedarktangent</a> also consider <a href="https://crystal-lang.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Crystal</a>, <a href="https://nim-lang.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nim</a>, and <a href="https://ziglang.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Zig</a>. While not as popular as Go or Rust, I think they should be considered as options when shopping around for a memory safe language. Crystal has Ruby inspired syntax, making it easy for Ruby developers to pickup. Nim has Python inspired syntax, making it easy to grok for Python developers. Zig is also GC-less like Rust, allowing it to be used in firmware or kernel modules. I personally think Crystal is well suited for those coming from C++/Java/C# and has very strong OOP. We have an abundance of memory safe programming languages to choose from. <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/crystallang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crystallang</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/nimlang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nimlang</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ziglang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ziglang</a>

watzonI think it's about time for another <a href="https://watzonmanor.com/tags/introduction" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#introduction</a>, because it's been a while and a bit has changed. Hi, I'm Chris. I'm a software engineer of about 13 years, with most of that being in both front end and back end web development. In a lot of circles I'm known as the <a href="https://watzonmanor.com/tags/crystal" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crystal</a> guy, because for a long time that was my favorite programming language. I wouldn't say I have a favorite anymore, but I use <a href="https://watzonmanor.com/tags/crystallang" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crystallang</a>, <a href="https://watzonmanor.com/tags/zig" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#zig</a>, <a href="https://watzonmanor.com/tags/ruby" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ruby</a>, <a href="https://watzonmanor.com/tags/python" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#python</a>, <a href="https://watzonmanor.com/tags/typescript" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#typescript</a>, and a ton of other languages. I am also a father of 2 beautiful children. Both of them were born prematurely, so that number will not be increasing.

watzon :crystal:I guess it's time for an <a href="https://uncorking.me/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#introduction</a>. I am a software engineer going on some 13 years now, mostly specializing in full stack web development, but I love to play with more systems-focused languages like <a href="https://uncorking.me/tags/ziglang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ziglang</a> and <a href="https://uncorking.me/tags/crystallang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crystallang</a>. I also love 3d printing and run the <a href="https://uncorking.me/tags/TikTok" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TikTok</a> account 3dprintifer. Husband, father, and now owner of uncorking.me where I'll be sharing all my thoughts from now on.

Remilia ScarletDelayed <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#introduction</a> post! (delayed by like, 5 months lol). I'm Remilia, and I write Linux programs, make <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/doom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#doom</a> (and sometimes <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/quake" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#quake</a> ) levels, and occasionally write music. I'm also socially awkward and <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/disabled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#disabled</a> .
