Yes. There's a reason for that.
- chris_wot 13y agolol - I love how he defends it then writes "What I miss the most from other programming languages are features like public/private variables/methods, objects/classes + inheritance, type-checking, first-class functions, etc." The etc. is the killer for me :-)
- perturbation 13y agoI think it's over-criticized as a language, but I'm not going to be dishonest in describing what features I think it lacks or where I think it is actually, legitimately bad.
- chris_wot 13y agoSorry, that was indeed a little snarky. I could have phrased that better.
