> On that line of thinking, what about Swift and its C++ interop? Or is Swift not ready for systems level programming?

A lot of swift behavior is dictated by the standard library. There have been Micro-Swift and embedded swift implementations to cut down overhead along with work on move only types.

I think swift could be a good candidate for a post-c++ language but despite the open community it is highly Apple dominated in its scope and direction. That’s probably my the biggest trouble with swift.
