00:14:41FromDiscord<_timurski> (edit) "In reply to @abdulrahman.103 "Have you tried the": nah i've never used ... js" added "nim"
00:28:17FromDiscord<pipeliner.osdev> In reply to @_timurski "and for the flaws": yeah I agree↵nim's multithreading is harder↵↵nim should make multithreading easier
00:32:16FromDiscord<_timurski> tbh I haven't thought about it so I don't even know what exactly I meant there
00:32:42FromDiscord<_timurski> but it just seems like it hasn't been thought through as much as other stuff. tho ofc u can just write Nim w pointers and it all works as well as in C
01:25:42FromDiscord<11clock> ok so I decided to have ChatGPT give me a 20 question quiz to determine between Nim and Odin since I was struggling to decide.
01:25:57FromDiscord<11clock> Nim won 17 of the 20 questions.
01:27:05FromDiscord<_timurski> offloading low stakes but high learning potential decisions to an llm is a questionable strategyu
01:27:11FromDiscord<_timurski> (edit) "strategyu" => "strategy"
01:27:43FromDiscord<11clock> I have tried both.
01:28:35FromDiscord<11clock> Ultimately both have tradeoffs, just trying to determine which tradeoffs are easier to accept.

02:16:30FromDiscord<11clock> And I seem to lean more into being an "expressive language" person. Odin says it brings joy to programming but only if you code how it wants you to code.
02:17:25FromDiscord<11clock> Which is fine since I mainly picked it up to learn DOP. I just don't think I should stick with it as my main game dev language.
