I had a blast doing AoC in https://gleam.run/

it's like elixir with typing

Stop using ~~floats and cents for money~~ medium ffs

"stop using medium"

it's as easy as the code you're maintaining is.

it has fewer guardrails than most languages, that would prevent you from writing shit code

syntax is bad for list operations, also there are situations where you need to count the number of parentheses you closed, which wouldn't happen of you were able to use fluent interfaces

"don't maintain a social media presence" covers not having any social medium account

I mean mainly list manipulation, with explicit filter, map, reduce mathods.

I've also never had a problem with not knowing if I closed enough parentheses in Ruby.

do you have an example of this?

Yeah, but you can also write it like I proposed which is less boilerplaty and gives the same advantages
