Drew DeVault called it an "internet" language back in 2021. And to that I more or less agree. Read footnote 1 for context. https://drewdevault.com/2021/04/02/Go-is-a-great-language.ht...

But don't those exist primarily for unit testing? That was my understanding of why interfaces were there. If you wanted a mock, you needed an interface, even if there would ever only be one implementation of it in production.

No.. Go did a half-assed version of reference counting on resources. Memory yes. File descriptors, no so much. Edited to add: What's the point of continuing to discuss this if all you understand is .NET and not actually tried to man

You've clearly never coded in C/C++ where it's your job as the coder to manage memory and other resources.

A file descriptor is nothing but a pointer. It's really just an int. Usually maintained by the OS. Instead of sharing the file descriptor across a goroutine (bro, like WTF), let one go routine manage the file descriptor itself.

Python/C++ has finally: blocks as well. They're not nearly as good as the `with` statement (or context handler) in python.

I presume you're the one who downvoted my comment. C++ leaves OS level resource handling to the user. It's not C++'s job to figure out if the user wanted to close this unused resource. It's the programmer's job to

All programming languages are some sort of abstraction to the underlying machine language. Low code is just "one more abstraction to machine language". Previous art in this area would be Lotus Notes (1990's), Hypercard (1980

Well, from one grey beard to another, thank you. Some poor soul is going to have to figure out the code I wrote these last 10 years. I would say, algebra is the easiest. Python is the next easiest. I remember being taught applesoft basic

There are some very creative solutions for getting around license restrictions. The LAME mp3 encoder originally was a series of patches that could be applied to the Fraunhaufer ISO dist10 release.

The key there is 'IMO' isn't it? If the DB is your schema, great, DRF is awesome. But if the DB is not your schema, no problem, DRF still can handle it. And with DRF you get CRUD by default. And if you don't want CRUD,

I think the big issue is that everyone like pydantic and are willing to put it in places it may not really see a big benefit, over say, DRF. OTOH, if you're a big fan of NoSQL databases, then pydantic is a godsend.
