What do you think about that relatively new dynamic language?
It seems to have every advanced language feature imaginable:
- lisp macros
- pattern matching
- pure O-O (prototype)
- message passing concurrency
- overloading on method arguments
- higher order programming
- continuations
- nice syntax for partial application
- elegant and concise syntax (close to smalltalk)
etc.

Lisp macros
no
Pattern matching
Python? No. Ruby? No. Perl 6? It does.
Pure OO (prototype)
That's not CLOS nor Smalltalk's message passing, but prototyping OOP is nice.
overloading on method arguments
Ah, no.
higher order programming
They suck at it.
continuations
No.
nice syntax for partial application
U MENA HASKAL
elegant and concise syntax (close to smalltalk)
They are not Smalltalk.

IHBT.

Wait, you mean that the subject of this thread is the name of another pointless language that adds nothing new to programming?

Let me check.
