Do you mean embedded? that I agree with. Embedded sucks but there are lots of techniques (abstraction) you can use to avoid them. Unavoidable is writing web based applications without using several languages. Though I can think of some lisp apps that do not (news). Do you lisp?
- mojuba 19y agoNo, I don't lisp, but I know you can nicely embed HTML directly into your lisp code with macros. I saw an example here at YCnews earlier and was struck by it, that was beautiful. No doubt, you can do that with SQL too, although that's just a cosmetic change. Even if your code looks lispish, you still think in DB terms - tables, relations.
