Very cool!

I have been pretty hopeful about Mojo as I find many of the modern compiled languages these days requires an surprisingly excessive amount of ceremony just to open a file and read it line by line. At least this is the case with Go, as I've written about [1].

If Mojo is providing any kind of python like experience in this matter, I will be all into it again (it lacked these features when I last tried).

I'm really quite divided about Rust vs Mojo for bioinformatics in the future.

The syntax i Mojo really seems to shine a lot ... though I still wonder if the train has already left now that so much bioinfo work is already done in Rust.
