Last time I tried I couldn't get it to compile These days https://babashka.org/ is a much better option. It's powerful, fast, modern, works everywhere and has effortless multitasking.

You nailed it. The real villain in this story is mutability. We're addicted to changing variables in place, which is inherently complex – especially so in multithreaded environments. Environment variables are clearly best treated as im

The project I work on, which also hosts user-generated content, ran into related problems: - Outlook365 blocking any emails containing our domain - ISPs blocking our domain via DNS filtering In each case the blocklisting process was far fro

Shell scripting's best kept secret is babashka ( https://babashka.org/ ). - It's a flavor of Lisp (Clojure, specifically), a language whose flexibility makes it ideally suited for gluing together programs and workin

It's funny how (presumably) native speakers make judgments about their own language. Of course you can say "Ich bin Clown" just as you can say "Ich bin Kaminfeger" or "Ich bin Physiotherapeut"

I put together a reading list of the best writing on automated testing I know. Most of this is agnostic wrt the language you use, though of course examples are written in a language. ## Monographs Test Driven Development By Example (Kent Be

Working out with a PT also really helped me a lot. We work out outside, twice a week. Someone's waiting for me, which completely fixes the motivation problem for me. I'm still not someone who's naturally good at sports, but I

To me it's very frustrating that (as it looks like) the ticket will run out this month. It was one of the best ideas the German government has had in years. This month I've used the ticket a ton, both in rural areas and cities. It
