What's the best string representation of a function? Comparing with other PLs: Python: <function __main__.add_one()> JS: [Function: addOne] Clojure: #function[user/add-one] Scheme: #<procedure add-one (x)> I'm currently thinking about <fun add_one() foo.gdn:123>

It's funny how languages can offer multiple forms of syntax, but formatters standardise to a single form. E.g. single vs double quotes in JS, optional semicolons in JS, different ways of grouping imports in Rust. Should new languages be more syntactically opinionated?

Has the JS ecosystem reached a point where people agree roughly what a good architecture looks like? I don't see as many blog posts complaining about new framework churn and I'm wondering why.
