I did improve my Go skills solving all problems in Go, learning many things the hard way, but at end my solutions were way longer and so much less ergonomic than the NumPy & Python-based I saw by the top 100 guys! I mean, come on, Go doesn't even have built-in min(), max(), abs(), and other basics (for ints)! Some of the top developers had their solutions done in a shorter time that I needed to read the overly convoluted and confusing problems. I just didn't appreciate the infantile, and wasteful pseudo-comical style of problem definitions! I've attended any programming contest back in Bulgaria and I can't recall anything that required me to read everything carefully 2-3 times before I get what needs to be done (oh, well, I wasn't 48 back then). I also got fascinated by GitHub Copilot, which actually autocompleted many of those missing basics and surprisingly "guessed" what I was trying to accomplished and offer meaningful productivity boost. I also looked into Zig, but, honestly, I didn't like many of the syntax choices made. Instead, I installed V [0], and will actually try to use it as it fits me better.
