🤔 Wow, #Gleam #v1.17.0 is out and it's apparently a "type-safe" miracle for the Erlang VM — because having another hipster language for #JavaScript wasn't enough! 🎉 As if anyone was holding their breath for the earth-shattering #release of single file escripts that'll totally revolutionize...absolutely nothing. 🙄

🧐 Ah, the riveting saga of #Fennel, yet another hipster language nobody asked for, riding on Lua's tiny coattails. Meanwhile, everyone else is busy actually doing work with #JavaScript and #Python. 🌿 Because who needs practicality when you can have... fennel? 🙄
