Using multiple programming languages.
Using Golang has helped me create better data structures, and using C helped me understand linking, using python helped me understand closures, and using Ruby helped me understand that I hate programming.
- tudorpavel 6y agoCould you expand on the Ruby part? I'm not sure if you hate all programming or programming in anything other than Ruby.
- metapsj 6y agocan you elaborate on ruby? i'm curious to understand your experience with it and what brought you to the conclusion that you "hate programming".
- freehunter 6y agoI'm not the original person so I have no idea what their experience is, but I feel pretty much the same. Every time I work in a language other than Ruby, it feels like programming. When I work in Ruby the language feels almost effortless. I wish I could do everything in Ruby and it frustrates me when there is something I can't make work in Ruby. Especially Rails, everything that works works so smoothly. When it doesn't work I get very frustrated and switch to another language only to find out its even harder in another language. I don't like programming. I like it when the computer does what I tell it to do. I find that drastically easier to accomplish in Ruby (especially Rails).

- karmakaze 6y agoWould you like to pay now (compile time) or later (runtime)? We have ways of dealing with scaling of runtime in production (develop infrastructure environment). There's no way I know to speed up the edit/compile/run loop during development.
