They are huge names in the field, but honestly, they just suck at language design itself.
- Cthulhu_ 3y agoCan you substantiate that or is this just flaming?
- scottlamb 3y agoI'm sure they could come up with a list of language decisions they disagree with. I'm equally sure that if you asked kubb, kaba0, and three other strongly opinionated folks for a list of good language designers, each of the <5 lists you get back would be very short, and there'd be no overlap between them.
