Yes, ease of programmer ability ascertainment should not be a concern of a PL but I don't support your "as long as I end up with a product people want to use" philosophy that belittles the importance of the means used to reach an end. When discussing PLs you are discussing means. If you don't care then I don't understand your interest in this post.
- unalone 17y agoI wasn't saying that programming language doesn't matter. I was saying, in regards to axod's specific point that "great languages make it harder to write crappy code" might make it harder to decide who's good and who's not, that the goal of a programming language isn't to let people judge other programmers. It's to let them write code.
