I'm really not being that much of a hater. If I had the freedom to choose one language and use it for everything, I might not have a problem with a language that possessed the terseness of APL or Perl or Haskell or whatever. If a language truly were the Hundred Year Programming Language, that would be fine, because the investment you make in it would pay dividends for the rest of your life, and you could keep it in your head because you'd be using it all the time. But we don't live in that world.
