=> Re: "Whats your current favorite language?" | In: s/programming
spoken honestly? Powershell. It's what I've written professionally and as a hobby for like 10 years, and I've had codebases sprawling into the thousands of lines. It's the one I can pull out of my head on demand and get a small POC working in the CLI, and then refine it down to modules with proper structure later.
I've written and delivered a handful of projects with Python. I enjoy how dumb simple and flexible it can be, and the database drivers are sane.
I did a small program in Rust for batch-processing OCR requests. Fastest, snappiest program I ever wrote. Accurate too, with Tesseract.
Clojure is my only real voyage into lisp and most "functional-focused" languages. I like it somewhat.

My current fav for private projects is Go. The language fulfills several top requirements of mine:

On the downside, I don't like how the Go code profiler works: it takes regular snapshots of the execution stack; recording method entry and exit time stamps would be more accurate. I am also not very happy with new features (the new package management and generics) that increase complexity but are neither indispensable nor significantly increasing productivity: for what I do.
Whats your current favorite language? — Mine is currently Elixir and has been for a while. Elixir makes it easy to build complex apps and has so much built into it that I don't often need to reach for external dependencies.
