As a user of (the modern) C++ I would still prefer Lisp's (lack of) syntax. The abundance of parentheses does not bother me, and I find, for example, [](){}

[](){}
(valid C++ syntax) to be worse in comparison.
- iLemming 4y agoMatter of fact, pretty much any other syntax turns out to be worse. Kids get excited about JSX and yaml, and I chuckle. They love everything JSON without even realizing how much better EDN is. It's more concise, much more readable and a lot simpler to work with. Lisp syntax can be read on a phone screen - it wraps around but remains readable. Good luck trying that with Python.
