I don't need 10 emails to tell me that my package will arrive today, thanks.

Can't we all just... stop using computers for everything?

Alright, I'm convinced. I'll start all my Perl code with "use v5.36;" from now on. :blobcatjustright:

> In the Ruby space, there is also Crystal, a Ruby-like language that is statically compiled with type inference. This language is intentionally not Ruby-compatible, it has chosen to diverge from Ruby, but has still seen limited success. I think this is interesting because it gives us a broader perspective. Rubyists don’t like Crystal because it’s almost-Ruby-but-not-quite. It looks like Ruby, syntactically, but has many subtle differences and is very much incompatible in practice. This just confuses people, it breaks their expectations. Crystal probably would have had better luck if it had never marketed itself as being similar to Ruby in the first place.

@ayo Why is it that I find myself thinking of you, I do wonder...

@wasamasa Heh, Crystal is genuinely awesome, but I wasn't handicapped with Ruby experience.

And apparently VNDB is now blocked in Turkey. :blobcattilt:

@yogaskung Lots of people from Turkey complaining and dunno, I wasn't contacted beforehand. :blobshrug:

One hour of putting something live gets more feedback than two weeks of public beta.

Of course, if you make something faster the bots will just be crawling faster as well.

One more minor feature to rewrite and then Manned.org will be... not-quite-100%-Javascript-free. :blobcatjustright:

ayo,

@lanodan It'll work without JS soon enough!

@lanodan That's the intention. The "locations" link was JS before as well.
