Kotlin or if I'm really in the mood, Python
You had me at the first part and turned me off at the second.
I'd never write an entire application in python, but sometimes i have a few too many and think that dynamic typing might be fun
Haha my opinion is just why would you choose Python when Ruby is an option, but I do understand a lot of people like Python. Itβs just one of my most hated ecosystems (the language is βfineβ).
Ruby? Wtf, what did namespaces ever do to you
not sure what you mean by namespaces. but the python tooling is absolutely the worst tooling out of every major language out there. it's quite pitiful. just read over this for how bad it's actually gotten. https://github.com/mitsuhiko/rye/discussions/6
You know you want that syntactic sugar
Iβd say Rust is better though
