Also the wildcard system that means you get easy access to a tournament.

If you country hosts a grand slam Australia,Britain US, and France you can get some good prize money without winning a match.

Having the right flag beside your name removes lots of barriers

It’s kind of like lots of imperial measurements where we use metric still have these in idioms.

Cities skylines 2 implementation is still pretty lackluster in related aspects.

Lots of buildings have forced carparks.

People are content to walk absurd distances.

I almost preordered when I saw mixed use zoning.

I am aware of 3 “rust inspired scripting” languages that have dynamic types.

Rhai Rune Dyon

Mun is not dynamic, however it does not have string support afaik.

Kotlin and Swift may be better candidates than these scripting languages for my imagined usecase.

Come to think of it, maybe I don’t have a point other then there is so many scripting language’s inspired by rust that is dropping a major convenience feature, that I am surprised is negotiable (inferred typing ).

Thanks looks great so far.

Also has pattern matching which I should also have mentioned in my top level post.

Thanks for your suggestion.

At first glance it appears to be object oriented, which is against preference but not a deal breaker.

However error case looks to be try catch which is a deal breaker.

It seems every scripting language does duck/dynamic typing (as far as I can tell this applies to Koto).

I don’t understand why… inferred typing is nearly as easy to use while being more robust.

For me the biggest gap in programming languages is a rust like language with a garbage collector, instead of a borrow checker.

Rust has a lot of features that should be strongly considered for the next generation of programming languages such as

result/sum types

Inferred typing

Not object oriented or overly prescriptive with functional programming.

I think the closest language to filling that gap is occaml (I am not familiar with it).

I have coworker's that are more skilled in domain logic that can write basic self contained programs, but stuff like traits, OOP functional programming is a bridge too far.

I feel like a language that fills that gap could be useful, context is a manufacturing ERP system.

I did actually do that when I tried Vim but it felt clunky.

The find and replace is more at folder level with vscode previews only terminal equivalent I know is serpl

For your specific counting problem you can use relative line numbering which shows line numbers relative to your cursor.

However the larger attempt and redo problem you highlighed is mitigated in a modal editor that does selection first (not vim) instead of action so you get a preview of what you will delete before hitting it, you can also expand it.

I did give up vim for the same reasons, but I am happy with Helix.

I won’t deny that I still make lots of errors, I still use vscode for other features like folder search and replace, easier diff comparisons

Depends where you live, cities are still growing, like in Japan Tokyo still grows while the rest of the country shrinks.

We can survive an economic collapse more then an environmental.
