alt Hacker NewsWhat would be a better language? Most of the harness apps will be spending most of their time waiting for the models response and tool calling rather than running their code.
Languages with less opensource footprint or too verbose are at the losing side in a llm-driven world.

I feel like TypeScript is very verbose language to be honest.
Go, rust, zig would be my choices in that order.

You’d think that! Yet claude-code spends a very surprising amount of CPU just doing text layout work and other mysterious things, likely due to their decision to use React to build a TUI for some reason.
