Report | Stadium: Morrone Stadium Referee: Cassio Ribeiro |
gollark: The spec is too unclear.
gollark: Macron is strictly worse than Brain[REDACTED].
gollark: Python is slow and provides few static guarantees and has awful dependency management. Rust is too dependencyuous and often inflexible. Nim has basically no libraries or popular support. All other programming languages are dominated options, as far as I know, by my arbitrary standards.
gollark: So does BANCStar.
gollark: The project of making Minoteaur is made harder by the fact that there are in fact no good programming environments.
