Notes

  1. Ploeger, Lauts, Ulrich Gerard, 488.
gollark: I have a lot of random useful scripts for specific tasks I want automated which nobody else would want much.
gollark: We *do* need good stuff available for quickly throwing together scripts for personal use. Primarily python right now.
gollark: I like using `is-thirteen` personally.
gollark: Everyone should program JavaScript with more than 200 dependencies per project.
gollark: The most it can do is... teach the skill of converting your intention to something vaguely like actual code.
