       there are too many programming languages how am I supposed to form an opinion on all of them and make the objectively correct choice of which to use in every situation aaaaaa (I know you aren't supposed to/can't do this but my brain insists upon it)

       @stellarskylark the correct language is the one you're most comfortable using to solve a given problem

       @aeva it's very tempting to just say "use C for everything" so I can spend less time thinking about what to use and more time writing software but I also really don't wanna use C for everything

       @stellarskylark if you write it in c it'll be easier to port to plan 9

       @stellarskylark i know you aren't supposed to/can't rely on benchmarks as anything more than a game that insufficiently describes the strengths of a language but my brain insists upon looking at https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/ and https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/index.html
