powerful isn’t the same as well-structured

it was written to be a language that anybody could read or write as well as english, which just like every other time that’s been tried, results in a language that’s exactly as anal about grammar as C or Python except now it’s impossible to remember what that structure is because adding anything to the language to make that easier is forbidden

when you write a language where its designers were so keen for it to remain human readable that they made deleting all rows in a table the default action, i don’t think “well structured” can be used to describe it

sql syntax doesn’t support even itself correctly i fail to see your point

if you don’t believe that adding more structure to the absolute maniacal catastrophe that is sql is a good thing then i’m going to start to have doubts about your authenticity as a human being

• Giving effective error codes is the opposite of unhelpful
• Users who can’t figure out the underlying logic behind a GUI aren’t exactly going to thrive in a CLI environment
• The dominance of Office is because it’s better than its competitors, and because getting businesses to change literally anything they do is near impossible. SPSS isn’t even a Microsoft product.
• Troubleshooting on Linux certainly never involves “edit this root-owned file buried 6 layers deep in a cubby hole you never knew existed”, and it never involves “run this .sh script lol”.

This is an absolutely insane take

why on earth would you have a direct main CD pipeline without proper protections against pushing straight to that branch?

don’t tell me to fuck off that’s rude
