What you and your community do on HN reflects on you, regardless of what anyone else does. You're earning your reputation one post at a time. I mean, several of your posts here are dead and flagged. Take a hint. Your evangelism isn't working here, it's doing the opposite of what you want.
My suggestion is to work on your C++ to V translation engine instead of posting here. Maybe you'll move it past the early stage.
> You're spamming this thread and with your anti V attacks, have a bunch of them downvoted and flagged, and are teaching me about communication...
> So rude indeed.
I count ~10 comments across three comment threads, most of which are responses. It's a bit scummy to characterize this as "spamming anti-V attacks".
I never claimed to be anything, and I have no dead or flagged comments.
But I'm an asshole. I'm very rude and blunt. That's a given. Never claimed otherwise. But I'm not the leader of a community I'm trying to build. That's you. You need to take a higher road if you want to build a positive reputation. Or you can roll around with pigs like me and get a reputation for being muddy.
The fact that you turn it back to me personally when you should be standing on the merits of your work says everything I need to know about you and your community. Change my mind.

You just said yourself, that you are an asshole, rude and blunt, after insulting a whole community of people ... Have you thought, that maybe you should stop?

I am a farmer. I live in a village in Bulgaria, and I've had to deal with actual pigs before from time to time... Pigs should know their place, and it is not, where people discuss ideas.
Think it's way more about detractors trying to push a negative narrative on the language, than it's any kind of reflection of the community, who are elsewhere.
