#Swift macros are a fundamental language feature.

Some of the 4.x. and 5.x introduces features are not fundamental and would not be implemented, if macros had been a priority.

Can we start simplifying Swift? Please?

BTW, if you want to learn about macros, take a look at the excellent #CowBox framework!

@dimsumthinking book on macros is also a very solid source of wisdom!

High resolution Knoppix.

Well... I think mine had a Sound Blaster Live.

But yeah, 500mhz PIII, TNT2, that plain case with the canted power button.

Memories. :) #cowbox

OMG.

#cowbox sent me on an eBay hunt...and I think this was the exact model of Gateway I had back in 1999.It even has a Riva TNT2!

I miss that machine so much. :(
