That's just ridiculous. Erlang looks like php and python had an unholy child.
- MustardTiger 10y agoWhat is ridiculous exactly? You just dislike the superficial look of the syntax?
- PeCaN 10y agoDifferent stokes for different folks. Looks fine to me. But I'd prefer you don't try to offer advice if you don't actually know Erlang in the slightest.
- joshrotenberg 10y agoI won't downvote you because you are certainly entitled to your opinion, and there is no way I'm going to get into an Erlang vs Go For Writing Servers argument, but if you immediately write off Erlang/OTP because of how it looks, you are going to miss out on some pretty amazing server writing functionality.
- gmcabrita 10y agoIf all you dislike is the syntax, you can use Elixir instead.
- rcarmo 10y agoActually, it was more like Prolog self-pollination with a dash of acid. ;) But seriously, the syntax is not that big a deal once you've understood it (and being permeable to the history behind it helps).
- wcummings 10y agoBefore you get all indignant, that's not even a TCP server.
