Ewww default exports. Explicit named exports are better! And so it begins

How very dare you share my opinion!

PascalCase default exports for Classes

camelCase named exports for functions

ALL_CAPS named exports for constants

fun is the punchable face of keywords. I don't know why, but I hate it.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Oh, you're no fun.

^I'll see myself out.^

Python is fine as a language I guess

But python programmers give it a bad name. I've never seen "well written" python code, it's always shit that's been thrown together cos it works.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago

I use python exclusively when I want to quickly throw some shit together that nobody's ever gonna spend any time maintaining, so that tracks.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (3 children)

It badly needs strong typing. And braces.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Doesn't Python 3 have types? I've seen a few well typed codebases and it really made the code much easier to understand. Or is it just that it's not checking them strongly enough?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

The type annotations are just fancy comments. They do not do anything at runtime. If you have a function that takes an int someone can still pass in a list or anything else.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

The main advantage of typing for me is static linting.

just put int_ or str_ in front of your variables

problem solved 😌

I think python is good as it is for what it can do, mostly because I have no reason to use it.

What we need is lua with types!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Have you heard of Typescript-to-lua? I used to do Dota modding (which is in lua) with TSTL and it works great!

You write TS code (using Typescript syntax that includes types) and it is compiled into lua.

Wonder if that could be an alternative that can work for you.

When the grey beards wake up they're going to be fuming

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

int main() {}

Seriously. why isn't there any C love around here?
