Here's a post which is well within the limits of what nobody would describe as off-topic on HN, yet adds absolutely no value. As far as I'm concerned it isn't smart, it isn't funny, and it sure isn't informative. The last thing we need is more ammunition for people to fire at each other in language wars. Thankfully, the wannabe meme advocated by this post is so lame it will never get off the ground.

- ajross 17y agoNice work sneaking that bald language flame into your complaint about language flames.
- sabat 17y agoIt seems like it's about one step above "*BSD is dying". Funny in a perverse sort of way, but it's absolutely out of place here on HN.
- mst 17y agoHe doesn't appear to know the difference between perl and perl6, either - then again, he lumps all the lisps together as well, so maybe he really means "language family" when he says "language". Oh well. All my favourite production tools (perl, C, unix ...) have been declared dead at least once - that's how I know they're well proven and solid. Apparently now three of my favourite language families are also overrun with people thinking about how to implement them - I'm not quite sure why that's a bad thing either.
- tel 17y agoI think Zeroth Law of On-Topic is "adds value". Flagged, honestly.
