Oh god, please no.
- huragok 14y agoThe syntax reminds me less of python and more like coffeescript. I loathe python but there's a certain .. je ne sais quoi with much of the operators and syntactic sugar removed. Almost like natural language!
- stcredzero 14y agoThat's the Smalltalk heritage of Objective-C shining through. Smalltalk was actually intentionally designed using Human Interface notions to be friendly -- even to the point of being used by grade school children.
- Xcelerate 14y agoI had the opposite reaction. I was initially thinking "another overly syntactic language", and then I went to the website and thought "Wow! This looks very nice!".
- tvon 14y agoOh, but yes, yes! :)
- Quequau 14y agoThis is something I completely agree with. However, at this point, having used things like gofmt, there should already be tools that enforce correct formatting. I don't use python very much... perhaps there already is.
