spotDL (not spotify-dl) is a good CLI option.

nice

just for simple tasks, where i need something between the simplicity of bash and the type safety of rust. its just my personal preference when it comes to scripting, although i do believe it should be the first consideration for choosing a user friendly but powerful embedded or config language, like for neovim, especially if performance is a concern, but it will ofc not always be the best option. the 1 index is certainly annoying though, but i would personally rather that than anything to do with python, especially whitespace. the if...then and for...do is the same as bash, so i dont think its that bad

i would say lua if possible, but python has more libraries

i agree, tho keep in mind that while your average cop may have the computer literacy of a 5yo, many federal agencies are quite compentent with technology. not that i believe the feds are going to hack your computer for piracy (other reasons perhaps)

welp. guess im quitting mastodon then

i agree…but…no

australian cellular internet (no wifi)

yep!! rootmy.tv

i agree, but the website is annoying to use imo

ive never seen anyone whos not an absolute beginner, using notepad, spamming space for indents. i think most people know how to use tab->space conversion

i think go is also considered memory safe due to the garbage collector

idk if youve heard but its memory safe

two words: yes

undefined

types are bloat for maintenence? id rather get a compiler error in 0.1 seconds than spend hours tracking down where in the code my number was coersed into a string.

mashing space 16 times

bro hasnt heard of an IDE before.

most will convert tab to space, or can be configured to. vim just has one command that can be put in vimrc

i agree with the web being overused for a lot of things, but if it were simply html/css (less js) it would be better

the stack is cool, the language itself sucks, unless compared to javascript

:based:

true but i dont think is really a hot take?
