tbh as much as I've truly loved hating on node.js, I can't be anything but impressed that sites like trello seem to work so well on a node.js + mongodb stack

type inference is the devil, i'm reading some pattern matching code and every line introduces like three new names and i have no idea what anything is anymore

p langs is about quick prototyping, or when you don't have the time to dive into a completely different ecosystem, or when you know you're going to be using some specialized library, or that your problem benefits from REPL-based development i suggest p = pragmatic langs

I mean, every language exists because it met someone's needs enough for them to create it, whether those needs were pedagogy, performance, pragmatism.

remember when java was a set top box language that got pushed into the web browser? the promise of write once, debug everywhere don't let me stop this entirely stupid slap fight, it's not like you can't get dynamic typing (or, as some might call, late binding), and type checking in the same language none of this poo poo is mutually exclusive, just that the languages you're championing can't seem to get this idea in their head

prolog is too magic for me, I have no mental model of how it functions (probably because I only used it once in Programming Languages Class, like half the other people in this thread) clearly the only solution to this is to write more prolog Cybernetic Vermin posted:i simultaneously hope to never be a professional java programmer again (enjoying some hobby python programming atm), and feel that it is obvious that java has more solid thought and engineering behind it than the p-languages vv if it takes more boilerplate to write your code, that just must mean that the language is better engineered! all my favorite languages are 90% autogenerated by my IDE, I love reading & editing code written by a machine java is the assembly of 2013 (except with uglier syntax)

tef posted:prolog is kinda like many things in that the ones teaching it often have a very poor understanding of it. make sure you get a very recent copy, mine had all sorts of errata in it that was hand edited in also, one thing that helped me was writing a unification program. it's not too hard to make a simple unifier if you've already written a primitive compiler and it will go a long way in explaining how prolog goes about its business
