    The Next Web[^]:

    On the Swift side of things, there are a number of changes to the language which are meant to ensure “safe and predictable behavior” and to “improve interaction between Swift and Objective-C.”

    It's always good when a language supports 'Safe and predictable behavior'

      It's a shame. I really wanted to say Swift evolve into having wild and dangerous behaviour. It would be great to see it unleash a cheetah because to chew on your dangling pointer.

        Of who? The developers need to re-write the code just finished?
