GYG’s still-struggling US expansion ran at an $8.3m loss in the last six months of 2025, worse than the $5m loss over the same period in 2024, on GYG’s EBITDA basis.

V's #promises are like a politician's campaign speech: grandiose, unfulfilled, and riddled with #controversy 🤡. While some cheer like it's the second coming of #programming languages, others sigh and wonder if it's just #vaporware with a PR team 🥳🤔. But hey, let's not worry about its history—let's focus on how #underwhelming it actually is in practice. 🚀💥

Can V Deliver on Its Promises?

When Alexander Medvednikov announced the V language it was to both cheers of “This is the best language I’ve seen!” and skepticism “These claims can’t possibly be true”. Controversies have dogged the V language to the point that actual contributors and users have very little tolerance to critics. As one Hacker News user put it:

The need to find value where it might not actually exist is an essential part of capitalism. But it certainly could happen that there’s some event that causes the markets to suddenly recognize that what these #AI products actually do could never justify the truly immense costs of building and running them, and if that happens, watch out.

@graves501 All #positivethinking and #affirmation work aside, I can't help but admit that I never want to own a #lenovo laptop again. The #support is truly #underwhelming. My computer has been at Lenovo Thailand for over 40 days and the #repair status has just gone back to on hold and they can't tell me anything over the phone other than that they expect to update me on what's going on in January. 🙏
