So Many Programming Languages

Lua on the frontend, Elixir on the backend and Turso database - the Brazilian stack

Running an entire company on Web Assembly apps gives me an OrgWASM

I’m paraphrasing here: “There are people who haven’t used Lua for more than three hours, but still have strong opinions.” “I don’t have strong opinions a Python. I’ve only used it for about 100 hours.“ Earlier: “Haskell is useless.” Come on, you’re just trolling us now, aren’t you?

You might think you hate MATLAB but use it for 100 hours and then you’ll really hate it

Prime just made the classic argument for mmos for Lua: “Dont worry, it gets good after the tutorial!”

Odin is super clean syntax and readable.

I have fond memories of Lua. My compilers class in college did a semester long assignment where we built a lexer, parser, and interpreter in Lua. That professor's unit tests, to this day, are some of the best I've ever encountered. Passing those tests was like crack.

“You should use narrow scoped languages” / PHP’s confidence was boosted

That whole WASM talk really reminded me of the pro/con debates about targeting JVM/.NET, and how we used to have Java in the browser with Java Applets. Gives me a lot of flashbacks there with the whole "compile to WASM/JVM and run everywhere!" argument.

Every video you make is a masterpiece. Keep 'em coming!
