HN discussionIt s just a lang like any other. Even ASM you can write fairly easily if you do it for years. Raku is quite damn cool, you should check it out a bit. As felix[1] said, it realy is something like bash and python having a cool cousin. [1] https://felix-knorr.net/posts/2023-06-24-raku-is-awesome.htm...
