>>526462>lispI agree with the spirit, not so much with the implementations and the ability to get shit done in a team with it.
>>526533>Python was basically designed for plebs who don't know how to program.Yes, it has a pretty good reputation as executable pseudocode and an excellent standard library
>It abandons the syntax rules that programming languages have stuck to since the 70's (since most languages are loosely based on C).Algol actually*, Lisp and Fortran precedes C by 25 years yet people have been able to adapt. Syntax has never been a problem.
>You really can't do too much with itAll ML runs on it, all AI runs on it (as glue since the optimized libraries are written in C/C++/Fortran, but not all languages have such a good FFI. Looking at you Java), Youtube runs on it, Google uses it a lot, Instagram runs on it. You can do plenty with it
>Javascript is ass because you can only run it in web browsers and other shit.Anon, are you in 2008 or something? JS runs on everything with Node now, even microcontrollers with QuickJS. It's also really fast with all the money Google throws at it
>Again, classes teach it just because it is easy.They teach it because there are jobs in it. I wouldn't call JS easy, prototype-based inheritance is a bit weird, there are lots of weird edge cases that can throw off new programmers, the runtime errors (x is undefined) are usually pretty shitty. Also, JS tends to use functional programming more than "classic" languages which throw off people used to other languages.
