Lobster VS ShellNewHandler

• Efficient Performance
  Lobster is designed to be a high-performance language, focusing on efficiency in both compilation and execution, making it well-suited for resource-intensive tasks.
• Convenient Syntax
  The language offers a concise and readable syntax, reducing boilerplate and making code easier to write and understand.
• Strong Typing
  Lobster features strong, static typing that helps catch errors at compile-time, improving code reliability and maintainability.
• Run-time Safety
  It provides various safety features at runtime, including bounds checking and automatic memory management, contributing to fewer runtime errors.
• Game Development Focus
  Lobster is particularly well-suited for game development, offering specialized libraries and tools for graphics, audio, and input handling.

Possible disadvantages

• Smaller Community
  Lobster has a smaller user base compared to more mainstream languages, which can lead to fewer community resources, libraries, and third-party support.
• Limited Documentation
  While Lobster is well-documented, it may not have as extensive documentation as more established languages, potentially making it harder for newcomers to learn.
• Niche Use Case
  Being tailored for game development, it might not be the best choice for general-purpose programming or tasks outside its specific focus area.
• Less Mature
  As a relatively new language, Lobster may not be as mature and battle-tested as older languages, potentially leading to undiscovered bugs or limitations.
• Learning Curve
  Despite its convenient syntax, transitioning to Lobster from other languages might require a learning curve, particularly in understanding its unique features and optimizations.

• The Neat Programming Language

  I think lobster does this. "Compile time reference counting / lifetime analysis / borrow checker."[1] "Reference Counting with cycle detection at exit, 95% of reference count ops removed at compile time thanks to lifetime analysis."[1]... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• What are some must have built-in modules in your opinion/experience?

  I think the ability to open a window and do graphical stuff is actually pretty underrated in core language functionality. There's a few game-oriented programming languages like Lobster that put windowing and graphics in the core language... Source: over 3 years ago

• Why does Rust need humans to tell it how long a variable’s lifetime is?

  There is another language, Lobster, that uses lifetime analysis like Rust, but IIUC infers lifetimes completely automatically. It looks like the idea is still experimental - I'm interested to see how it goes. Source: over 3 years ago

• I recently got libreoffice, but now the new option in right click looks like a mess. Can someone help me get rid of them please?

  Use Shell New Handler. Run the portable app and simply untick the items you don't want to appear in your new context menu. Source: about 4 years ago

• This menu should be easy to add/remove programs to... Who is really creating Access Databases from this menu often enough to keep it here? (Not me!) Is there an easy way to edit this?

  I've always used ShellNewHandler for this. It's a really simple portable utility that allows you to remove most of the items from that menu. Tested it out on Windows 11 and it's still compatible. Source: over 5 years ago
