I am increasingly interested in “improved C languages” [1], and I like the direction this one is taking.
It is still in early design state, but it seems very interesting (to me).
[1]: I once saw a video in which @andrewrk told his motivation to create Zig was, if I recall correctly, “to fiddle with C so it could be improved by removal of the weird (and undefined) behaviours”. That message has hit me hard, and since then I have been thinking about (and in search of) it.

Was this the video you were thinking of?
No, it wasn’t. It was this one.
