459·2 years agoLiterally the opposite of friendly. Already in the hello world you have two imports for extremely basic functionality (why should I have to import the ability to throw exceptions??) and a completely enigmatic symbol ’ that apparently has a significant function.
A “friendly” programming language should be readable without knowing esoteric symbols.
Really got my hopes up with that headline that it’d be a python-level intuitive-to-read language with static typing.

Autism@lemmy.world•Let's Play AQ-10 • I like to collect information about categories of thingsEnglish
2·2 years agoThis question amuses me because if you was going to take it completely literally, which seems like a reasonable approach for someone that is autistic, then you would read this as do you collect information and store it in some way such as files on the computer or a database. Which no, I don’t do that. But I do like to learn about lots of different things.

Technology@lemmy.world•Pfizer says it will price Covid treatment Paxlovid at nearly $1,400 for a five-day course, which researchers estimate only costs Pfizer $13 to produce. That's a 10,000%+ markup. Shameful.English
61·2 years agoHaha, you got in there before I corrected my typo. The point still stands though! There’s a whole lot of people in the world, 80k doses is fuck all.

Cool Guides@lemmy.ca•A cool guide to the alcohol metabolismEnglish
2·2 years agoFurthermore, those of us with alcohol flush reaction can break the alcohol down to acetaldehyde, but have a harder time breaking it down to acetate. So you get hit with the effects of the acetaldehyde more.
