»quicktype — Convert JSON into gorgeous, typesafe code in any language.
Convert JSON to Swift, C#, TypeScript, Objective-C, Go, Java, C and more.«
In my opinion, this open source tool is good for quickly creating a prototype, but then the programming only begins.

Content warning: Advent of Code Solution - Day 7 (Nim)

I'm so glad I'm writing the solutions in both #nim and Python because I tend to find ways to improve the Python solution with the Nim one and vice versa. Today was one of those days. The biggest thing I learned though is that solving these damned puzzles exhausted will never lead to good things quality-wise.

Let's get this straight: it is entirely normal for a #OpenSource project to accumulate bug reports over time. They're not a thing to be ashamed of.
On the contrary, if you see a nontrivial project with a very small number of bug reports, it usually means one of the following:
a. you've hit a malicious fake,
b. the project is very young and it doesn't have many users (so it's likely buggy),
c. the project is actively shoving issues under the carpet.
None of that is a good sign. You don't want to use that (except for b., if you're ready to be the beta tester).
