Ah, then I accept your advice. I happen to like programming, but I also view it as a practical skill and a means to an end. That's the lens through which I was viewing your post. If your central point was that you personally enjoy Lisp, then I don't have an opinion one way or the other.
- ds9soft 2y agoI also view it a as practical skill. I'm paid to write in a practical language which is mutating into a monster I no longer consider fun to write in. But as I started a new project which eventually could be a business, then I can use whatever language I want, as long as it's practical for my use case. Why would I use any other language than one that I already know and like? It would make no sense. If you were to start your project, you would probably pick a language you enjoy using, rather than the one you are paid to use, unless it happens to be the same.
