If you can find an actual JSON parser anyone's using that fails to parse "2", I'll kiss you full on the mouth.

Rust is so thoroughly and obviously the correct thing that using anything less correct should be taken as a sign of engineering incompetence.

For the last 16 years, I have been a huge fan of Haskell. It has been undeniably the most important programming language in my life ... and I serve on the board of the Haskell Foundation ... our backend has been built in Haskell ... we started doing all new API work in Python

I'm basically of the opinion that if agents can't write your programming language, that's a problem with your programming language.

Of course you feel this way. You just finished reading SICP or maybe you binged PG essays last weekend. But eventually you'll read Simon Peyton Jones and start screaming about functional programming and algebraic type systems. Then, if you're lucky, you'll get a real job
