The perception that PHP is still a bad language.

The inconsistency of standard function parameters.

The lack of generics.

Not sure where Apple is going with exclusive podcasts, but it’s probably nowhere good. By default I’m against any “podcast” that can’t play in multiple podcast apps because it erodes the openness of the ecosystem.

An interactive interpreter prompt is essential

A really solid library ecosystem

Great HTTP and JSON support with minimal hassle

I wish Python had multi-line lambdas (though I can't imagine a good syntax for them)

I hate how complicated it is to bundle compiled C dependencies in Python packages

I'm jealous of JS tagged template literals - f-strings aren't quite as good, they're missing the tags

If I whittle down the things I dislike about Rust, ultimately it's that it has a young ecosystem that's a little bit too under resourced.

Pavlov: the dogs salivate when I ring a bell
Me: weird. Why?
Pavlov: they connect two unrelated events due to repeated conditioning
Me: haha stupid animals
Pavlov: the experiment took 69 days
Me: nice

@aaronpk Really good, human-readable documentation; open package management; a short time to first run without proprietary tooling.

"Yes?"
"This is just 'Ethics' and 'Human rights' and things like that."
"Correct, that's the first year curriculum."
"Do we have to learn all this?"
"Of course! What do you think this is, software engineering?"

@aaronpk Huh, that's a tough question. Functions and some kind of module-like construct as units of code reuse, and... I guess a syntax for comments?
It's easier for me to list features I think other people might consider mandatory that I don't think are critical, like objects, or loops, or Turing-completeness 😁
Or to list features I wish every language had but can't insist on, like type inference, sum types (aka "tagged unions"), and closures.

- robust community support and adoption
- good impedance match with problem space
- excellent support tooling

note that none of those are about the BNF.

I really hope IndieAuth takes off at some point and allows us to privately host our own decentralized and federated authentication.

oh wow. During a discussion I had to share my old post on why OAuth2 isn't an authentication protocol http://www.cloudidentity.com/blog/2013/01/02/oauth-2-0-and-sign-in-4/. I use everyauth as example there, but apparently they lost the domain... now the link leads to "Top rated toilets and how to find them" #reassignableURLs
