I'm sure a lot of very smart people are working on this, and I don't want to detract from their dedication, but man this language looks like a mess. And in no small part because it wants to be backwards compatible with C (the reasoning is unconvincing -- why not just use C++?).
In the age of Go and Rust, which already have a hard time finding niches, I don't really think there's any room for a language like this. And on the other hand, from a research standpoint, it's probably a lot more interesting to build a new language from the ground up.
