I don’t care what people say, Modern C is starting to get really cool. For example, C 26 compile-time reflection uses this neat little trick to represent heterogeneous data with a single, scalar value (std::meta::info). This value is *technically* an ID into the compiler's AST. The neat part is you can steal this technique for representing runtime entities as well! Next Thursday I’m giving a talk in the UK at ACCU on Sea, where I'll show how to use the static metafunctions to help build a homogeneous runtime reflection registry.

It doesn't matter if you know how it works. It matters if it works and delivers value.

I find it somewhat ironic that prople are promoting the "dynamic ..." terminology, because it's like unneeded patching what has been wrong all along, namely focus on "aggregates". It's a/the major point of ES that _different and varying_ values can be folded from a journal.

Ever seen code that is just data pretending to be logic? I’ve seen this pattern in more codebases than I can count.

Type-safe UIs are the future. Typed HTML. Typed CSS. Typed JS / WASM. Couple this with Effect Oriented Programming and schema-gen'd RPC and 🤯 The coding agent unlock is huge!

the more experienced I get programming games the more that I realize patterns like inheritance and components don't matter, the only thing that matters is functions and entities which run functions... entities might be the next thing to go
