You are also 'broke' in that your shitfilter is broken. How could you enjoy Java? Have you not experienced anything better?

C is the best programming language ever.
There's just something relaxing and orgasmic about it.

Enjoy your convoluted #defines and bit-level hackery.
The beauty of Lisp is that you aren't constricted by the syntax.
It's simplicity gives you all the freedom to fully express your ideas in code as if it were natural to do so.
If you had ever programmed in any LISP you would know the relaxing feeling of how your program just seems to flow together.
If you had ever programmed in any LISP you would know the orgasmic feeling of your ideas culminating in one finished piece of program.
Not a dirty, patched together bastard, but a beautiful, organic entity of code.
Java tries to be a high-level language without actually having high-level operators. It's like coding in C, but with machine-independent types, more type checking, bounds checking, garbage collection, "classes" and less meta-programming.
C# is Java done right. It's still Java, but it has high-level abstractions that make it tolerable.

...Fuck you.
I know. But I like doing what I know. It's what I'm comfortable with.
C# is shit.
I wouldn't actually consider it a programming language, most of the "programming" is done using a mouse

Dude, nowadays you can buy a mouse for like $5, it's no longer a rich kids toy, no need to be so negative about it, just go and buy yourself one already, you can afford it.
All you have is an irrational anger at computing mice, rooted in the past when rich daddys bought their spoiled kids PCs with windows 3.11 and yes, mice, and you were so envious and envy breeds anger.
Now wake up old boy, it's the end of 2011 and you can afford a mouse yourself. Go and buy yourself one as a Christmas present, and let your outdated envy die!
Your calling me names only shows how pathetic and pointless and irrational your misdirected rage is. You kinda assume that it's enough to say that most of the C# programming is done using a mouse and that automatically means that C# sucks, because mice sucks, right? And it should be obvious to everyone, right?
The idea that this might not be obvious at all, and even false, can't fit in your brain addled by the stale envy.
I repeat: get outta you're basement, spend $5 on a brand new mouse, and you will thank me later!
hey wat is my thing fag.
java guy here btw. ive been curious about lisp for awhile, explain it to me like you would a twelve year old but without the sarcasm and bullshit. is it worth learning.
qsort[h@t] -> f:rec::keep [@(f ?<h t) h @(f ?>=h t)]
// set union, intersection and difference
union a b -> a.{_=>b; [x@xs]=>if fnd,x,b xs.rec [x@xs.rec]}
isect a b -> a.{[x@xs]=>if fnd,x,b [x@xs.rec] xs.rec}
diff a b -> union (strip fnd,?,b a) (strip fnd,?,a b)
Now try this in Java.

whatever it does it can easily be done with java, though perhaps not in the same way.

that doesn't make it any less of a toy language.
any number of other languages can do that too, for instance perl (and it doesn't need to cheat by using shell script).

You fail. Perl includes builtin REGEXPs. My DSL doesn't. It just so happens, it has the ability to do unrestricted deconstructing-bind.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
You made me laugh heartily.
You only think they're not useful because you don't know how to use them; you admit to this by saying they're hard to use.
Nothing could be further from the truth. I assure you that they're quite simple and extremely useful; all that is required is to rtfm and practice a little.
I suppose reading is too hard for you too though, right?

Anyone else wants to argue, that an inferior REGEXes could be compared to a full featured recursive descend parsing with full integration with a language? It is that easy! Just parse HTML using only REGEXes. Anyone?

parsing html with perl regexes is easy.
and please stop capitalising REGEX, i don't know why you're doing that but it makes you look like an idiot. "Regex" is not an acronym, it's just a shortening of "regular expression".

"my fail" ?
back to /b/ please.
i have no interest in writing a bunch of code that will never even be used solely for the purpose of winning an internet argument with some Lisper who has his head so far up his anus that he can't see daylight.
good day, sir
There's a lot of programming languages that I truly dislike and would likely never use. That being said, I know of no language that's superior for doing everything.
Perhaps the direction we need to move is different languages for different problems - even within the same program.
It is something that have been attempted before and sometimes with some success.
Quoting me on "I know of no language that's superior for doing everything." and then writing: "It's called X" (X being you favourite language) is of course both clever and hilarious - but please don't do it.
Haskell is faster than C++, more concise than Perl, more regular than Python, more flexible than Ruby, more typeful than C#, more robust than Java, and has absolutely nothing in common with PHP.
