DISQUS

Noah's Mark: Eric Meijer invented dumb.

  • Elmar Langholz · 2 years ago
    I definitely agree. There is a tendency to hype up languages which we like and have developed code for them, especially if we helped implement key features (http://research.microsoft.com/~emeijer/Papers/P...). I guess this sort of behavior comes from a feeling of belonging as one would have with our children.

    BTW, I couldn't agree more with the IsNot patent! I'm all about trying to avoid these type rocks on the road.

    Haha, I can't believe he tried to claim the REPL of all things. What's next? VB invented the GUI? Invented whitespace?

    In general Eric Meijer is very careful to give credit where credit is due... Care to post the link to his talk so we can decide for ourselves?
