I wonder what side you would put Malbolge,

What side for python? Haskell? Idris? Clean? C? K?...

white/dark side is too much of a simplification to me.

Programming language equilibrium is a very complex subject and fascinating one.

After years of experimenting with many of them, it is all a matter of context of usage, personal preferences, objectives, etc.. there is no such thing as "the best programming language ever", neither "best for light side programming" nor "best for dark side programming".

Similarly, there is no such things as: Light side/Dark side in artistic painting. There are tons of paints some are clearly greater than others, but there is no such thing as "the best painting most beautiful for everyone seeing this paint comparatively to any pain".

Personally this is a hidden trick I use.

Ask AI to build something. By default it will use python. Sometimes js or typescript.

Ask then to do the same thing in Clojure. The result is generally an order of magnitude better. Shorter, easier to read for both humans and llm. Easier to adapt to changes.

I remember a documentary about learning things to kids, and in order to optimise learning efficiency the optimal ratio for difficult questions should be 1/4. So the children continue to feel good about themselves, while still improving.

So I guess this ratio about easy vs difficult question should be a parameter in such spaced repetition algorithms.

I think there are a few movies that made me realize how much the space is vast, empty and adverse to life.

I think it would be nice for people to take a look at them:

- Aniara (2018)

- High Life (2018)

and maybe in a less artistic view:

- Powers of Ten (1977) yt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fKBhvDjuy0

I remember there were data loss, but my account appears to have been recovered. You may try to login again, and with luck, like me you will get back your history.

I personally have great success with gptel + mcp + claude (via copilot due to corporate restrictions)

I wrote a short article about how I configured it there: https://her.esy.fun/posts/0029-ai-assistants-in-doom-emacs-3...

One thing I really appreciate with gptel is that it is very easy to switch from Claude to something else like a local llm (via ollama or gpt4all for example). And the interface will be similar.
