Typescript on the frontend, Python on the backend, SQL for the database, bash for CI. This isn't even counting HTML/CSS or the YAML config.

I wouldn't call html, yaml or css languages.

Same for sql, do you really context switch between sql and other code that frequently?

Everyone should stop using bash, especially if you have a scripting language you can use already.

Dude have you even written any hardcore SQL? plpgSQL is very much a turing-complete language

Sorry for being pedantic, but what does the "L" stand for in HTML, YAML, SQL? They may not be "programming languages" or, in the case of SQL, a "general purpose programming language", but they are indeed languages.

You don't have to apologize. It's the internet, pedantic is expected
