I’d take a moment for an actual piece of advice. In your life like 80% of the skills you need are communication and “not being an ass” skills. Technical skills are great but being a good communicator is far better.

Oh, you must be looking for dragonsfuckingcars.
Yea, I saw C style and was disappointed when it didn’t abuse gotos.
Okay, that’s a clever use of that meme.
… and yet… it lacks clear and enforced type restrictions which help with clear code contracts. It’s certainly better than Javascript but the lack of runtime enforced type checking can force defensive programming in an unnecessary manner.
Your statement isn’t strict type checking. It’s a restricted form of type coercion. Given how common this feature is in other languages it’s weird that pythonistas feel so defensive when discussing the feature. I enjoy strict type checking, but that’s my opinion - it makes it a poor choice for the sorts of projects I work on but if it’s good for you then enjoy!
Big if true
… (well, bigger than zero at least)
This isn’t an issue, though. PHP has the same partial typing flexibility. There are ways to solve that issue and even typed PHP still allows union types including mixed
which allows any types.
Considering there is typing in the code why is there no switch to enable type checking at runtime? PHP does this with a per file declare(strict_types)
- why would python be unable to have either a global or per file flag to enable checks?
I recently tried out Python. I had no idea it still doesn’t have runtime enforced typing…
I didn’t realize that PHP was decades ahead of it.
I believe the formatting issue is because the triple back tick is on a line with other text. In most markdown flavors triple backticks should be on blank line (with some exceptions for hinting at syntax highlighting). Slack’s is the only dialect I’ve seen that specifically strips newlines from triple backticks and I hate it.
And have a valid Apple developer account?
Maybe we could use Javascript to direct a simple robot to set the lever while we remain at a safe distance?
Maybe the real solution to this diagram is to nuke it from orbit.
I use arch, btw.
People named Maria be like:
Yea, it used to be MySQL but now it’s truly my SQL
Let’s not lie to ourselves now. The winner would probably be a SQLite flat file serialized into a postgres text column.
A bit of context, I maintain a small laundry list of open source utilities I’ve built up over time… when I want to try out a new language I just take one of my libraries and convert it into the new language. I’ve found that generally does a good job of highlighting language shortcomings and specialties (especially since my packages lean heavily on syntactic sugaring) while also giving me an end product I can run up against a nice suite of robust tests.
I might suggest finding a small (like a dozen source files tops) library you like and just converting it into the new language as you’ll be forced to deal with more serious problems than a toy project while also potentially producing something useful on the far side.
Hey, personally, I use nano

Emacs runs everything if you try hard enough.
Someone has built an org mode plugin for launching steam games[1] - I don’t believe anyone has yet built a steamos emulator in elisp, though.
But that just means it could be you!
It’s okay. Emacs is still available.
It sadly doesn’t appear to be.
