I'm pretty sure Erlang, Prolog and Forth would blow your mind.
- codyb 7y agoAlternatively you can just grossly misuse them.
- omeid2 7y agoProlog blows my mind ever time I come back to it.
- bobowzki 7y agoYes, it's an amazing invention!
- johnchristopher 7y agoAnd C would blow his foot, like it does for everyone at some point ^^.
- userbinator 7y agoOr anything from the APL family such as APL itself, or the ASCII-only derivatives J and K.
- lacampbell 7y agoAre there a lot of Erlang, Prolog and Forth jobs, where you are? Face it, we all pretty much use the same 10 or so languages in industry.
- samvher 7y agoI'm working mostly in Erlang and from what I can tell there is quite some demand for Erlang and Elixir developers. Also there seems to be a lot of demand for Scala developers which while based on Java is not the same as those 10 languages. I've also used PostScript in a work context (which is stack based like Forth).
- lacampbell 7y agoThat's pretty cool. Erlang interests me, mainly because of what a amazing speaker the late great Joe Armstrong was. I don't really solve a lot of Erlang shaped problems right now, however. My situation is this - people see my CV, see those languages, and immediately dismiss me for Java jobs. I think it's a short sighted decision, but it's the thinking that permeates the industry.
