Honest question: do you find yourself really thinking about a languages syntax after you've spent 40-50 hours coding in it? To me it kind of fades into the back

Honest question: do you find yourself really thinking about a languages syntax after you've spent 40-50 hours coding in it? To me it kind of fades into the background, becomes hard wired in my brain. (I'm not suggesting I'm an awesome coder or anything of course)
- sausagefeet 15y agoIn C++, yes.
- davidw 15y agoMostly, yes, but the line endings in Erlang fail the "don't make me think" test. They make you stop and look and make sure everything is in the right place. It's not that big a deal, and the language has lots of other great qualities, so I wouldn't get too hung up on it, but it's not fair to say it's not irritating.
