I referenced that point out of context.
Someone asked, "Is there any demand for Arc?", After people were joking about the 'Invisible Arc.' I said, "If it is more clear and consistent, I demand it." I was merely stating my demand, not arguing with them that Arc is better. I don't know if Arc is better, but I know that if the Community of Arc is better than #lisp that would be a great start.
- willarson 19y agoSorry, it just seemed a mite too easy. :) Its pretty hard to find a community worse than lisp, but a big part of that is that lisp is at a very different stage of its lifetime than almost any other language out there. Python/Ruby/Perl/TclTk et al are very young, and tend to be much more friendly (interestingly many feel that the Ruby crowd is getting a bit antsy these days, an acceptable lisp afterall? never). I'm hard pressed to explain why C is still relatively friendly, but I suspect it is in large part because there are many more C programmers, many more new C programmers, and that C finds people, whereas people find Lisp.
