  • I like Nim and many concepts of it with the big point of discussion being that function names get normalized (helloWorld === hello_world).

    But I feel like that Nim is a language without purpose. It’s all nice and cool on paper, but it has no use case where I think “I have to do it in Nim”.

    Go is known for making small, fast startup web apps, Python for making small one time tasks or Data work, Rust low level programming if you like functional programming, PHP if you want yo setup a website as fast as possible.

    But Nim doesn’t have this, it doesn’t have a library that’s better than in all other languages. It’s nice but what for?





  • Sure, a lot of retro games, especially from the SNES: Super Metroid, LoZ AlttP, the Mario All Stas Collection.

    But also like GBA games like Pokémon RomHacks or Mario vs Donkey Kong.

    But I also really enjoy playing some Portmaster games. I actually spent most of my time now playing Shovel Knight lol. But I also have fun that Sonic fan games are easily installed. I played a bit the Sonic fan game Sonic Robo Blast 2
