You forgot to respond to the first one:
"Want minimal syntactic sugar and a language that's not prone to feature-of-the-week hipsterism"
- oldmanjay 10y agoThat's a lot of words to declare oneself a masochist Or if being verbose is desired, do you want to do a job for a computer that you are not suited to do but the computer is?
- coldtea 10y agoWhy in God's name would I want minimal syntactic sugar? I want optimal syntactic sugar.
- themihai 10y ago> I want optimal syntatic sugar Like Rust or C++ templates? I prefer C syntax over the "optimal" alternative.
- coldtea 10y agoWhy in god's name would Rust or C++ templates be the optimal amount (or optimal syntactic sugar design)?
- themihai 10y agoWell, that's my point! There is no alternative with "optimal syntactic sugar design". You have to choose between something 'minimalistic' (C) and something less minimalistic (i.e. Rust).
- EpicEng 10y agoEveryone has a different idea of what 'optimal' means here.
- atilaneves 10y agoI didn't forget to respond. I consider minimal syntactic sugar a big, not a feature.
- snakeanus 10y agoThe answer to this is Scheme.
