Choosing a programming language for a small thingie feels like:
Python - slow and total ass to build and launch
Golang - Google's a bitch and I hate them with all my soul
Rust - too much drama, most code is littered with .unwrap(), async implemented in the most horrifying way possible
Java/Scala - JVM doesn't fit into the memory budget
Haskell - no, I just want to get away from Haskell, even for a bit
C/C++ - C/C++
Zig/Nim/HaRe - I'll be crucified by my coworkers
This all sucks, you know :(
