- pjmlp 10y agoHence why I consider a big error to have created the CLR in first place. Now we kind of got .NET Native, but it still isn't 100% done.
- yawaramin 10y agoSometimes I fantasise about what would've happened if MS had decided, by some fluke, to push, say, OCaml as their big .Net initiative. Can you imagine MS Visual OCaml#? OCaml for Windows app development ... that would've turned some heads.
- jetti 10y agoYou mean instead of C#? Their pushing F# a bit now
- LyalinDotCom 10y agoF# is a great project and we have a passionate community behind it, certainly a good thing to try if you're into functional programming
- jetti 10y agoI'm getting into Elixir for my functional programming fix. I had looked into F# awhile ago but it wasn't for me at the time
- yawaramin 10y agoExactly, instead of creating a Java clone, what if they'd decided to use a well-understood existing functional language with an elegant module and object system from the very beginning....
