I, on the other hand, am not in any way put off by someone not trying to answer every single part of a comment, when it starts out with "Odin seems like a bunch of features copied from a bunch of different languages without making sure they're (a) good and (b) consistent"!

I can't imagine OpenCL in any way being involved with the rendering of the UI. Maybe you're confusing it with OpenGL?

If you're having problems making use of an eGPU (that's supported by apple, which rules out nvidia!), you should report that. eGPUs will probably be a common use case.

Regarding the new Nvidia provided mac driver, does this have any influence on Vulkan or modern OpenGL support? Or would that require changes in macOS itself (that would presumably never happen)?

I'm using a Philips BDM4065UC at home. It's just under 40", 4K at 60hz. This gives you the same pixel density as a "normal" 27" monitor, but with far more space. I prefer it over smaller dual monitors, and feel no need for more screen space.

And yes, this is an actual monitor, not a TV.

That does not seem plausible. That would break a million different things. Are you sure you're interpreting your results correctly? Do you have a test case you can share?

I must be missing something obvious. How is Tim's JWalk example different than doing:

  try { 
     var key = json_object.them.public_keys.primary.bundle;
  } ...
Is it to better allow dynamic keys? More consistent error handling?

You mention generating core.typed annotations from schemas, to allow for some compile-time checking.

I would have thought that this would be extremly hard to automate for non-trivial schemas, or at least that core.typed would have a hard time proving that return values match a schema. Is this only for a subset?

On 10.8.2 it works. Is there any shortcut for opening files by namespace names? Or of exploring the namespaces in a connected project?
