Presented is the system programming language Goose

The developer introduced Goose — a new system programming language focused on providing memory safety without using a garbage collector or allocators. The project is positioned as an alternative to C++ and Rust, offering a performance boost while maintaining strict security guarantees.

According to the stated characteristics, code in Goose runs 1.16 times faster than similar solutions in C++, and 1.12 times faster than secure code in Rust. Achieving such performance was made possible by abandoning dynamic memory allocation in favor of managing all values through compiler-controlled data stacks.

The language does not require the developer to use annotations, which simplifies the coding process. All resource management logic is automated at the compilation level, eliminating memory access errors characteristic of low-level languages. The project's source code is already available for review in a public repository.

The technical community is actively discussing the project's architectural solutions on the Hacker News platform. The main interest is in the approach to data management without classic allocation mechanisms, which could become a significant change in the development of high-performance system software.
