I am an exception then. Rust may be my favourite language but the syntax is pretty awful and one of its biggest weaknesses. I also love Ruby but I am pretty meh about its syntax.
- zabzonk 1y agoI don't think many people would start to use a language unless the found the syntax at least a little simpatico - but I guess they could be drawn by the semantics it provides.
- sampullman 1y agoI (almost) don't consider syntax at all when considering a language, just whether it's suitable for the task. The exception is languages with syntax that require a non-standard keyboard.
- jeltz 1y agoI mostly chose languages due to semantics.
