Comments
If you’re looking for a scripting language similar to Python without the emphasis on indentation, I’d recommend Ruby. It’s a little less fashionable, but is every bit as powerful and can be used with the Rails framework when a web interface is needed.

2023-07-05 04:48:58 +0000 UTCI use Fastmail’s Masked Email (which links up with 1Password) or Apple’s Hide My Email feature to sign up for stuff. If I ever get spam, and I see it was one of those email addresses, I can immediately turn it off (and also find out who gives away email addresses to spammers…)
