Honestly, I find the announcements of 99% of new languages here at hackernews pretty boring, because they all feel like they didn't learn anything from the last 20 years or so.

But this list actually makes me excited!

Yeah, me too. They published quite a lot of papers using it [0]. The datalog integration is pretty nice too, haven't gotten to learning Prolog yet, but seeing how concise a sudoku solver can be implemented in it was an experience.

(edit) you can import Java, Kotlin and Scala in it too, those are automatically Impure. Would enable purely functional architecture [1] and falling into the "Pit of success" [2].
