Can you recommend any lesser-known programming languages that you actually use?

@spacefinner Ladder logic :3

No don't actually try to use that. >.>

@spacefinner I'd say "ruby" only because shockingly few people seem to know it's not "just rails" (the enterprise web server platform), but … it's going to be a bit jarring coming from python.

Other than that? Nothing really comes to mind.

@itspomf Jarring is fine. Everything right now seems to be Python Python Python which bothers my contrarian streak - how will I know what Python's bad points are if I don't try other things?

@spacefinner that is, admittedly, the best reason to try new things.

@spacefinner Common Lisp, my favorite dynamic language. Good mix between not being super mainstream, but not being so obscure that there's only a handful of users (i.e. the tooling is undeveloped and there's no real prewritten library ecosystem)

@spacefinner is puzzlescript a programming language? it's a fun toy, at least

@numbers I do like puzzlescript! It probably counts for the spirit of the question.

@spacefinner considering getting back to #Idris2 for my first #AdventOfCode. I mostly use #Agda nowadays

@spacefinner I've enjoyed writing Haskell. Feels like programming for math nerds

@spacefinner arriving to this post late because i had an idea that i wasn't sure counted as "actually use" but i've realised it does count because i actually used it today: Uiua! I've heard of people doing proper complex things with it but I've just had fun using it for quickly automating little math things.
