I think its fair to rely on Python for Linux Distros. Ubuntu/Debian/Redhat all bundle python with the distro. Where-as the JVM & Nodejs are generally seperate packages. Java 9 though, allows you to ship zero-dep golang style binaries [1]. https://steveperkins.com/using-java-9-modularization-to-ship-zero-dependency-native-apps/ https://steveperkins.com/using-java-9-modularization-to-ship...

Nim beginner here. I wanted to see if I was capable of making an equivalent program in Nim. I'm still a bit confused about some of Nim's conventions and idioms, mostly revolving around when to use objects vs. ref objects, and how to properly construct an object. Care to take a look at my code and give me some pointers (heh)? https://gist.github.com/anonymous/1e3d7045de67f59c676135fead3aa66a https://gist.github.com/anonymous/1e3d7045de67f59c676135fead...
