so here you go:
I use SEPPLES for enduser shit
Lua as embedded scripting language for enduser shit FIOC as generic helper language
PHP+Perl for web shit
and i hate HAKSAL and LITHP. I don't hate ANSI C though, I just try to avoid it whereever possible. May all HAKSAL and LITHP faggots die a terrible death.
c'mon, judge me. it's all you can do after all, /prague/
>>7 Truly, a hatred of Lisp is a sure sign of an unstable, foolish, unsound, unscientific and ultimately destructive individual.
Pfft. Christians say the same about people who reject their religion too.

People started getting butthurt after realizing they couldn't learn it and functional programming principles in just a week, that they have to give up on 80% of the ideas they've been taught in imperative languages and that it has had most of their 'oh so awesome' language features in a much better form for-fucking-ever.
Hence the Haskell hate too.

That's strange, as those languages are not that hard to learn and learning them is fun, unlike learning yet another C derivative.

>not that hard to learn
There's a pretty huge divide between Algol family derivative languages and Lisp. Then just add in the jump to functional programming and the focus on certain math/logic things in both and it's not hard to see why some have issues with learning them to the point where they realize they're both pretty spiffy

There are some languages such as Python which, when abused correctly, can make one get used to functional programming before a proper ``full immersion''.

I think the aggravation with Lisp is the product of the fervor of its users in proclaiming that it is an ideal, against the lack of ready applications for it. It reads like a contradiction, and maybe even a hypocrisy, and at best it is an injustice; and all those possibilities can aggravate a programmer especially, who is already inclined to be principled, and would see such a contradiction as not only a violation of principle, but a violation of principle from people who should know better, as programmers are expected to be especially sensitive to matters of sense. Compounding this issue is that his identity is more likely to be moved by loud voices in the community of his craft, to which he is most closely in earshot, and if those loud voices are dissonant to him, then he will be not moved, but prodded, and that can only further agitate.

I was mealy pointing out the fact that Lispers treat their language like a religion, and believe in it against all common sense, just as Christians believe in their bible without any proof. And that Lispers automatically condemn and bitch about anybody who says the slightest thing bad about the object of their faith.

You mean industry standards? Who cares about standards? Lispers write code for lispers, not for some crappy industrial fascist-employers.

It could just be that LISP'rs are obnoxious children who think they're better than everybody else. ORLY?YRLY!

But you cant dynamically extend C++ or Haskell for that matter. So, even being a "religion", it offers its followers heaven right and now, while Haskell offers only hell and sufferings of static typing.
