  • Fucking hate when you get “too old” out of people for one side but not the other.

    All these fossils should have been sent to the farm years ago.

    Max age for starting a term should be 70. In most places you can’t be in control of a car without regular tests when you reach that age, yet you can be in control of the largest nuclear arsenal on Earth if you can still tell the difference between a cow and a horse.










  • Some automatic conversion is fine.

    a=3+0.2

    print(“Hello {name}. You are {age} years old”)

    That kind of thing. But the principle of least surprise definitely applies. If you get to the point where you’re adding two booleans and a string, I feel like the language should at least say something. At least until the technology exists for it to physically reach out of your screen and slap you.
