Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link this blog's post on hot-loading C code. The comment cites it to show C can support hot reloading, so the post is used as a source rather than praised.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
What Hacker News says?
Hot reloading is about the only difference if you're doing incremental builds. For that, some languages are blocked by runtimes that don't support it. C can do it [0] so it's not a limitation of the static/dynamic divide. [0] https://www.slembcke.net/blog/HotLoadC/
