ivaniscodingon A Faster Alternative to Jq

That’s some fair criticism, but the same page tells that the language wanted to have a similar syntax to C and JavaScript.

I think my personal preference for syntax would be Python’s. One day I want to try writing a query tool with https://github.com/pydantic/monty

Shameless plug, but if you want to try CEL in your browser: https://celq-playground.github.io/

ivaniscodingon Pixi: Reproducible Package Management for Robotics

I think people have been sleeping on Pixi. There has been a lot of hype about uv lately and lots of the praise apply to Pixi as well!

Pixi shines in those niches where Conda was the only option. It seems ROS is one of them.

Keep up with the good work!
