Ambitious, humble, honest.

This has been an amazing development led by the mind behind Swift, LLVM and OpenCL. A language compiled to native code on CPU as well as GPU!

And no pretensions about growing the "right" syntax. It has Python's exact syntax because it is already familiar.

And they just made good on their promise of open-sourcing the full compiler. Hopefully, it has no mandatory dependency on Modular Max which is thier proprietary thing built on Mojo.
