Work:

  • C/C++
  • Python
  • Matlab (don't use this one)

Personal:

  • Julia
  • Rust
  • Fortran (trying out something specific rn)

My favorites right now are Julia & Rust. In their respective fields they're a breath of fresh air and I enjoy coding in them so much. If Carbon ever manages to get off the ground floor I'll be interested in trying it out. Regular C++ has too many footguns

Julia was interesting, I worked through a tutorial using Pluto and it seemed nicely designed.

Have you had Odin on your radar as a C++ replacement?

I haven't heard of it actually, I'll take a look

Just learned a new word footgun. I love it, so true of C++.
