I deliberately didn't mention specific programming languages because I knew that would lead to bickering about the relative merits of Python vs Java vs .NET vs Clojure, which would just distract from the greater point. Your curious assertion that I'm somehow part of "Go culture" only confirms this.
I think we can do a lot better than .NET or Java. .NET isn't even cross platform and Java has a lot of legacy cruft. Not to mention both platforms are pretty bloated and not even designed with the modern web in mind.
- sakopov 11y agoSo much bias in this thread in general. Have you missed the news on .Net Core?
- talles 11y agoA sample from the newer stuff in the .NET world: http://nancyfx.org http://nancyfx.org How modern is that for you?
- gizmo 11y agoSame old same old? If you think nancyfx represents a leap forward I don't know what to say.
- sievebrain 11y agoIt's not clear what you would accept as a good language for the web. Could you elaborate?
- talles 11y agoComparing to the old ASP.NET web sites with "view states" and "user controls"? Sounds like leaving behind the "legacy cruft" you talk about to me.
