No, what language you like is often not based on objective set of criteria. It's mostly personal preference and emotions involved.
For example, the reason I like lisps is because they usually offer interactive development, something most non-lisps don't offer. That makes any non-lisps inferior to me.
For the future, you could do with less snark. I never said what I think is objective, and I'm pretty sure most of us know that what languages you like is very much subjective. The sarcasm in your comment just make this thread less interesting, not more.
- preseinger 5y agoOh sorry! The adjective "inferior" usually does not refer to a subjective measure. Usually you'd use "distasteful" or something like that. My mistake.
- kaba0 5y ago> That makes any non-lisps inferior to me You didn’t write that though, so I get how some could misunderstand you here.
- capableweb 5y agoThis thread got started with the question: > Do people decide to go to work for a company based on the language they'll be working in? So it's expected that the responses will be highly subjective, since the subject itself ("which language you prefer to work with?") is very subjective. Then people write about their experiences which is again, subjective. Or, I misunderstood the entire point of this thread, and if so, I'm sorry.
