Of course, every new language should look exactly familiar to us users of existing languages.
God forbid we should need to learn any new syntax or shudder concepts! The old ways are the best ways.
If the example code doesn't look INSTANTLY, IMMEDIATELY awesome and amazing, it isn't worth a second glance. Even the first glance was a horrible waste of time!
- peeters 14y agoYou're attacking a strawman. OP never said that any new syntax is bad.
- azakai 14y agoI admit I was snarky and maybe jumped to conclusions ;) But it sounded like OP took a look at the syntax, had a quick visceral reaction to it and closed the tab. If I read that wrong though, then my apologies.
