The more I use Terraform the more I don't like it. Can I just get the option to track state with Ansible?
@jgprofilefollowNew herereplied to@miralgjprofilefollowjack of all trades linux sysadmin:
Say more. I've been using it this year "at scale" and it sucks in the way that everything sucks when the whole company starts using it for everything. I haven't used Ansible in over a decade, but am curious what you like about it better.
@miralgjprofilefollowjack of all trades linux sysadminreplied to@jgprofilefollowNew here:
Ansible just melds with my way of thinking better. I have a really hard time wrapping my head around nested loops in HCL and the overall "ugliness" of the language. Plus, I kind of like being in control of the order things are created.

Not exactly "recent", but recently dived into Guile Scheme and it has totally consumed almost all of my coding work. I used Common Lisp before but this dialect is without a doubt the best and simplest of the Lisp family.
@chanuxprofilefollowI ain't no nothing!replied to@itaprofilefollow:
Personally, mise is more "try in hurry" compatible. So it stuck. I have tried devenv as it seems to greatly simplify the setup. However, I had to get something done in a hurry. Tried devenv (which I installed around the time they launched) and got stuck with a load of outdated nix IIRC. So I also gave a quick try with mise, got started with fnox and it was considerably easier to get going.

me too, but at the same time i'm enjoying getting things done, otherwise i would get lost in details like bikeshedding naming variables and making the code look pretty, and little would be done.
