erlang.
As a programmer it was a revelatory thing of beauty. When we tried to spread it within our org we found that the 'typical' (even relatively strong) programmer resisted its concepts and found it hard to learn.
Therefore it didn't scale for us.
- gozur88 9y agoHow very odd. That's one language I found intuitive.
- zwischenzug 9y agoYeah, me too. It's an interesting thing. The C syntax and imperative mindset is hard for a lot of people to get. Especially if they're not motivated by the effort.
- unboxed_type 9y agoMost probably because of a lack of functional programming mindset.
- jetti 9y agoTo me, Erlang syntax is odd and a put off. However, I am digging Elixir and diving into Erlang when need be for OTP functionality not yet wrapped by Elixir.
