I agree. The only one that was close for me is Just. It is just Makefiles but without all the baggage.

I take road trips in my EV. It’s fine. You get to pee and walk the dog. The extra time isn’t much and it’s actually way more relaxing

They said the same thing when the Boxster/Caymen went from 6 cyl to 4cyl turbo. Yea it will change but Porsche is pretty good at adopting while keeping heritage

I mean Tesla cars are just x86 Linux machines

No harm intended but if you are reaching a conclusion that such a feature is not needed without going into more detail than “harm” can go the other way as well.

Sorry I didn’t link the discussion as I was on my phone and no partonization was intended.

Article is missing a lot of keys points. With iterator you can chain them together to provide even higher level abstractions.

There are plenty of containers (new maps with different algorithms like a BtreeMap, linked lists, etc) that now with generics could also use a generic way of iterating over them.

There was a pre-proposal discussion that went into a lot of detail of what is possible that wasn’t intended the release notes. I highly suggest the writer of this article dig much deeper into more benefits of iterators than the two trivial options that were included in the experiment description.
