- gnfargbl 2y agoWell, it's a very usable language which is strongly typed (by any layman's definition), easy to pick up, easy to get stuff done in, relatively easy to live with and easy to maintain. If it's hyped then it's only in the same way The Beatles and Pizza are hyped.

- kjksf 2y agoMaybe, but 80% of those are complains of some sort. That's the opposite of hype.
