ICYMI, latest babashka release includes a yaml parser. 🎉

really neat, I'm reimplementing our monitoring services from "full" Clojure to bb right now

Pretty soon it will be shorter to list the things bb can't do.

btw, I found a bug in bb today, so if you rely on long lived scripts, which poll http endpoints via babashka.curl upgrade asap: https://github.com/borkdude/babashka.curl/issues/17

thanks for pushing it forward

I'll do a lot to not write Go ;-)

Although I wrote some few weeks ago, was ok, until I had to deal with JSON deserialization and I remembered how painful it is

haha, I do a lot to not write bash

bb helps us both out

In last couple of weeks I wrote 2k lines of bash, at this point I know getopts and case syntax by heart

I think bash is fine, but as soon as I have more than 5 functions and I'm doing complicated jq pipelines it's time to step back
