i saw somewhere an article mentioning "why don't more people write f#" (mebbe it was on h/n)? I have never had to really worry about concurrency and if you've got a good familiarity with C#, you're halfway there to being a very productive in TypeScript, so I don't see exactly where F# fits in, considering the best parts of C# are its functional bits.
- tpetricek 9y agoThe fact that the best parts of C# are its few functional bits might be a good hint that if you had a language that was designed around those good bits, it would be so much better ;-). I don't expect to convince anyone in a HN discussion, because that's not how arguments about programming languages work, but have a look at testimonials (http://fsharp.org/testimonials http://fsharp.org/testimonials). You'll see that many people who started using F#, are very happy with it because it lets them solve problems faster with fewer bugs and they enjoy it more.
