So, in comparison, punish.

But if a game has lots of material and rules, you have to read and remember a lot. I'm not sure I understand what you want. Can you give examples of easy systems?

I have the books and while I haven't played it, they're well made and structured. Well worth the price.

I'm a software developer in a large german city and I'm facing this issue. Rent is very high, around 50% of my net income. Food gets more expensive by the day and the war in the Ukraine isn't even factored in yet. I can't live outside the city since I need to go to the office 2-3 times per week just for the privilege to stare at my monitor there, just like at home.

I love Julia for AoC, especially for matrices. It's just that good and I'm surprised more python people don't use it.

I use this:

    (defun get-file (filename)

      (with-open-file (stream filename)

        (loop for line = (read-line stream nil)

              while line

              collect (parse-integer line))))

As a German, I'm schockiert. Schockiert, I tell you.

That's exactly the problem: instead of using conda you should instead use one of the myriad of others! It's balkanisation.

How is it nothing like Python?

1-based indexing is definitely not a flaw. And version 1.6 massively decreased package import and precompilation time.

I think the point is: you have to see the pattern and break out of it deliberately.

How's the editor support with Mercury?

Have you looked at Julia?

Dammit, I skipped the "at least" part... I read "during the last 100 years".

Dune series by Frank Herbert, not much comes close.

Well, I wouldn't exactly say that Lisp (CL) is functional. Also, if you're referring to macros then that's fair.

So it's the magazines task to 'protect' people? What the hell kind of argument is this.

> that also avoids grimdark

Not as interesting as it could be then.

Why didn't the crystal guys put the effort into Julia instead?

Do it. I'm using it atm after years of Python and I like it.
