Re: "At some point down the road retrocomputing will include..."
The thought of this makes me shudder.

Someday, Rust will be retro too! That's just the way things work. :)

I gotta stop getting old

There is only one way to stop getting old...

@stack Agreed! Dart all the way, amiright? Okay, probably not going to get too much support around here for this one ;)
You can try it on the interblogs, if curious.
I'll just leave this here ;)

@Morgan It looks like C# 👍
☕️ Morgan · 2023-07-21 at 13:09:
@Addison it should be one of the easiest modern languages to learn, think Java without the rough edges :) e.g. no primitive types or arrays, simplified class/member visibility, collaborative scheduling and isolates instead of multithreading.
🔭 DocEdelgas · 2023-07-21 at 17:39:
@Morgan That's arguably still very similar to C#.
🐝 Addison [OP] · 2023-07-21 at 18:38:
I've seen good work done with Flutter. Dart looks promising for sure.
☕️ Morgan · 2023-07-22 at 05:36:
@DocEdelgas yes :) I don't know C# well, but I believe it ;)
At some point down the road retrocomputing will include using Python 2
