@wilshipley @greenisus What's your 140 char opinion of Swift vs Objective-C after 1.2?
Swift 1.2: my code code runs up to 10x faster than 1.1 unoptimized, up to 8x faster optimized. (Some routines run in the same time.)

@vwadhwani I'm still at a point where I know how to do more things in Obj-C but I'm definitely enjoying some of Swift's conventions -
@greenisus Gotcha, thank you! -
@vwadhwani have you tried it yet? -
@greenisus Not yet.. I mostly do ruby & devops but have been considering dipping my toe in. Trying to decide which to learn. - View other replies

@vwadhwani I found Swift to slightly remind me of Ruby. I think learning either is fine because most of the work is learning Cocoa.

@wilshipley@antonyboudouvas - Wow, how is that possible when they said Swift was close to C++ speed already? -
@Dewey2000@wilshipley I think it will be a while before it achive such honor! But for v. 1.2 is an impressive work . -
@antonyboudouvas@wilshipley - Yeah, just joking! At first I thought Swift was a dumb idea, but now, it's looking brilliant! -
@Dewey2000@wilshipley On Thursday i completed the re-write of my app in Swift and sent it to Apple for review. And not looking back… :) -
@antonyboudouvas@wilshipley - Good Luck!!! -
@Dewey2000@wilshipley Thanks but the only purpose for this re-write was to get familiar with Swift & Apple tooling again. Totally worth it!

@wilshipley wow, that's nuts! Finally living up to its name. -
@wilshipley@clattner_llvm Slap me silly, Sally.. -
@wilshipley@clattner_llvm aka, it *used* to be slow? ;) I wonder where it would sit in this diagram: http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/u64/code-used-time-used-shapes.php …
