Start thinking more functional

Sounds like good advice, thx.

Zig

Choosing a high-level language would limit your world so all of those are out. I could make my own high-level language if absolutely necessary from Zig but the reverse is not possible.

Zig > C as it’s easier to write safer more secure code while being as fast or even faster than C, and usable in embedded and other places only C is normally used. In fact, I can create C binaries with my Zig compiler.

Zig > Rust because actually writing safe Rust code would use all my time and sanity so would end up writing unsafe Rust, but then what’s the point.

Zig > Go because Go is slower, higher level, and backed by one of the most evil entities to ever exist.

good lord

What about Quinn? lol

This makes me want to see a grown up Daria cartoon.

Nooooooo_oooo!!!

C+++

C will be swapped out function by function with Zig.

Write a shell script, for example, a script that uses rsync to back up your computer to another over SSH. Then make it rotate your old backups.

Your public key is no longer in my ~/.ssh/authorized_keys :(

That’s a serious breakup, can’t say I’ve even had anyone that close. Finding the right friends is like finding the right distro and it hurts when someone shows you an ugly part of them (ahem Red Hat).

Huh, I’ve never heard of anything like that.

Check out Crystal, it’s like static typed Ruby.
