gollark: I don't mind the syntax, I just generally don't seem as productive in it as in other stuff. Also, the compiler is quite slow.
gollark: I don't like C(++) etc enough to use them at all, and haven't really tried using Nim for that sort of thing.
gollark: I'm also dissatisfied with basically every programming language ever in slightly different ways, yes.
gollark: If I write a Rust program to do a thing, it will probably keep working with consistent CPU/memory use with minimal maintenence. I have one doing a thing, and it works squite nicely.
gollark: Yes, but I think both are fairly accurate.
