I just learned that in Python, it's fucking terrible. Python is a fucking mess and my next script will be in a different language.

Perhaps TS is not a terrible language for shell scripts after all

Never tried it, but I will probably be more at home than python.

As a python lover, I have to ask, what don't you like about it and what languages do you generally prefer?

[–] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

I prefer strongly typed languages. Using bytes isn't intuitive.

Transforming certain data types into other data types is often not straightforward.

The identation is the worst though. Let me format the code however I want.
