New Paul Graham thing...
The Python Paradox
Both languages [Python and perl] are of course moving targets. But they share, along with Ruby (and Icon, and Joy, and J, and Lisp, and Smalltalk) the fact that they're created by, and used by, people who really care about programming. And those tend to be the ones who do it well.It's interesting that all of those languages are dynamic and thus favored by Paul Graham. Does he really think that, e.g., Haskell and Ocaml are being created by people who don't "really care about programming." Or is this just a cheap shot? Or are those languages really just completely off his radar? By Matt Hellige at 2004-08-12 20:03 | LtU Forum | previous forum topic | next forum topic | other blogs | 28153 reads
