Red/Rebol is one of those languages that throws down a gauntlet for other languages. (Factor is another, as is Elm.)
You can be so productive in Red with so little experience that it's almost irresponsible not to use it and promote it.
If you could write a program that replaced you, would you?
- jrm4 4y agoEvery once in a while it comes around and I'm like, I should take a look. But I cannot echo your broader point enough; I'm in the odd position of being very familiar with coding but I'm not directly paid to produce it (I teach IT) and (dare I say more than most everyone around here) it's obvious to me that coding could be a LOT better, easier, more user-friendly, and is unlikely to get there for this reason. I don't want to take food out of peoples mouths, but there's so much of this that we could do better. Could probably call it the Hypercard problem. (And again, the charge I want to make here is that there is a subconscious blindness to it.)
