Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated 🙏🏻

happy to share... the hipster young bucks that dominate the dev scene of nostr have lots of testosterone and many of them even have some amount of university training, me, i missed getting into CS back in 1994 because the school i was at valued obedience over passion and intelligence and i chafed so hard i literally spent my last year of senior highschool plotting revenge or smoking weed or smoking cigarettes down at the oval

i still could have got into a Bachelor of Science with my results but i only wanted CS lol... not physics, not chem, CS!!!!!

took me literally 20 years to get back on the saddle

and oh yeah, the point of me pointing out how these kids who like their hipsterlangs like rust and elixir and haskell DON'T STRUGGLE with concentration problems...

almost all programming languages have a heavy learning curve and a lot to absorb quickly and often have abominable idioms that use excessively long names or have declarative requirements that force you to literally say the same thing like 3 times for the compiler to build it

Go cuts out everything extraneous, rejects everything that is above what is required to write good code, it really is the successor to C, and built by the guy whose B language became C, and another dude who was heavily involved in documenting Unix, wrote an early concurrency based language called Newsqueak and was the developer of the famous Acme editor used in Plan9 OS... and the GC side of it was done by the guy who wrote the core of the modern NodeJS interpreter, V9, which is the core of the javascript engine of Chrome, now the dominant browser engine

all the hipster kids don't understand why these things are important

because they are kids, and because they don't have AD/HD
