Please don't give markup a bad name because of YAML, or the clusterfuck linked by GP.
- k__ 8y agoYou got me wrong here. I don't think markup languages are bad. I just don't understand why someone would create such a "clusterfuck linked by my GP" If you re-invent a programming language in markup, you basically get a new custom programming language that "probably" can do the same as another non-custom programming language, but without the benefit of many people already know them. Why not integrate something like Lua or Dyon instead of YAML or XML?
- tannhaeuser 8y agoI know what you mean, and agree with you ;) The inflationary use of the term "markup" just bothers me, when it denotes a very specific thing that's been in use since before computers existed.
