Yes the compiler/interpreter can figure it out on the fly, that’s what we mean by untyped languages.

Are there untyped languages? You probably meant ‘dynamically typed languages’.

But even statically typed languages can figure out most types for you from the context - it’s called ‘type inference’.

janAkali,

IMO, go’s gopher is ugly, not cute. But, anyway, there are better reasons not to learn Go.

For one - the error handling. Every codebase is filled with messy, hard to type:


<span style="color:#323232;">if err != nil {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    ...
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span>

And it doesn’t even give you a stack trace to debug the problem when an error happens, apparently.

Second reason - it lacks many features that are generally available in most other languages. Generics is the big one, but thankfully they added them in last half a year or so. In general Golang’s design principle is to implement only the required minimum.

And probably most important - Go is owned by Google, aka the “all seeing eye of Sauron”. There was recently a big controversy with them proposing adding an on-by-default telemetry to the compiler. And with the recent trend of enshittification, I wouldn’t trust google or any other mega-corporation.

There is so much that I would want to do that requires time to be “flowing”…

If we’re talking about physics-accurate superpowers, please add partial blindness - photons are frozen in place, they can’t reach your eyelids, unless you walk into them. And suffocation due to completely still air.

And … now you can’t even nap in peace 😐.

How much their ad-free tier costs? Can I pay without them tracking me? No? Then fuck you (website owners), I will be freeloading and will advertise freeloading.

Btw, use uBlock origin on Firefox, I haven’t seen one of these annoying screens in a while.

Edit: uh oh

Weird. I had headaches practically every week back when I drinked coffee semi-regularly (1-2 times a week).

Around a year ago, I’ve stopped drinking coffee completely and switched to strong tea. Never felt so clear-minded and headaches are far less frequent then before, and if I have one - it’s like 10% of it’s usual strength.

janAkali,

I mean, they’re not wrong. But it’s not tiktok, it’s almost all social media and consequently, 99% of the internet.

janAkali,

I have pretty minimalistic setup.

Three dropdown terminals, managed by a bash script: top for quick commands, left and right for nvim.

Bar is i3bar, with a custom status program written in Nim language (can display any command output with conditional colors).
