So are you going to pick F# now? None of the arguments in that post have convinced me to switch.

- rdtsc 12y agoI might. I really like F#, I was hesitant about the .NET and Microsoft infrastructure. There was minimal interaction with it on the business side (all Linux). Only recently have started playing with Mono. Now that .NET open source, I might give it a second look!
- dkarapetyan 12y agoAh but you see your reasons are entirely pragmatic. You're worried about the ecosystem and vendor lock-in. None of the arguments in the post even come close to mentioning those things.
- rdtsc 12y agoOk you are right, I see your point. I guess the assumption here is "all other things being equal" which is often not the case. There are large team, difficulty in finding libraries, legacy code, performance/testing/deploy-ability considerations.
