If I were an AI, I would create such a game to learn how humans will try to escape dangerous situations and thus learning how to exterminate them more efficiently.
Controversial perhaps, but I now use Go where I used to be a prolific shell script script coder.
Main reasons:
- Fewer opportunities for foot-guns
- Ease of portability, no dependencies, e.g. no more "is jq installed ?"
- Consistent cross-platforms, e.g. no more "is this system using GNU sed ?"
- Modern stuff like crypto, and "internet stuff" is just quicker and easier to do in Go.Controversial opinion: I use Python for scripting. Terse syntax, but more structured than bash.
