/prog/ - I have a criticism of LISP

Name: Anonymous 2008-12-28 5:51

Nobody cool is doing anything with it. There is no LISP Web 2.0. There are no hip new ENTERPRISE applications being written in LISP.

There are only smug weenies and suave space toads.

Seriously /prog/, I'm better off learning C#, Python and Javascript aren't I?

Python and Javascript, yes.

Because it's fun to learn a completely different language.

F# is going to be included in the next iteration of VS and the .NET framework (4.0)

Also many cool people are doing cool things with it

If this isn't your idea of cool, you may be beyond help.

Why are you calling Lisp a functional language? Is it because you don't know anything about it? Yes.

Right there. Why do you write it in all caps?

Although you misspelled it, I notice that you didn't use a capital +.

Of course he did. The lower-case + looks like this: `='.

And an upper-case + looks like `*'. Which he did not use.

No, that's an upper-case `8'.
