I doubt that C++ or Lisp's success has anything to do with stern looks.
- nailer 18y agoAre C++ and Lisp successful? C++ doesn't seem so popular in the last decade. Lisp was That Language That Abuse Was Written In to a lot of people.
- d0mine 18y agoBoth C++ and Lisp are successful. Of cause It depends on how you define a "success" among thousands of programming languages.
- jbjohns 18y agoC++ certainly was popular, in fact the most popular by every measurement I saw back in the day. And he's talking about how it got there when it did, not today. I don't necessarily agree, but what he was saying should have been pretty obvious. :)
- Hexstream 18y agoHe said that Lisp isn't popular because it doesn't have the stern looks...
- d0mine 18y agoI should have said: I doubt that C++ or Lisp's success or a lack of it has anything to do with stern looks.
