Think about it: C# already got the cool functional features that have real practical use. When I say this, I think about lambda expressions basically and how powerful they work with LINQ. I firmly believe that better thread handling language features will be incorporated into C# too, and after that F# really won't have any real advantage over it.
I don't really use F#, as I'm more of a Lisp guy than an ML guy, but there is one awesome feature about ML-like languages, and that's their pattern matching features.
Yeah, as a diminished 5th it's not a very nice sound when you use C as well.

yes but the tritone has a place as a passing tone when harmonized properly in tonal music. bach used it and its usage was common in the fairly common in baroque and romantic eras.
the tritone chordal substitution is used in jazz (cf. john contrane) the use of which comes from the flat 5 of the blues scale

>>4 Implying music using the 12-equal scale can be properly harmonized or called tonal.

Now that's a bad attitude. Instead of learning the good lessons a language has to teach you, you reject them because you think what you know is more than enough. Sorry to disappoint you sir, but I've got bad news... What functional languages have to teach you (and other programming paradigms), is perfectly applicable in most languages, starting with low-level asm and C

But that's even further from a properly tuned major third than 1.2599211, the 12-equal third, is. Around 270 cents I'd guess. You clearly don't understand waves or harmony, but that's understandable in a mind warped by the 12-equal system, in which harmony works only on paper thanks to the mathematical farce based on wishful thinking that is its layout.
It's a research language. It's meant to make the company better at making other, more traditional languages, but not to be adopted by the large percentage of developers. Languages get more functional all of the time, so it's a good move to make it, and I expect it will be a decent, usable language.
