Not really sure whether S-expressions or Python indentation-based scoping get more hate...
(programming.dev)
...from people who seem to refuse to install paredit or coloring plugins for either? ps lisp syntax ftw, it's a feature!
Who hates s-expressions? They're elegant as fuck...
Python, on the other hand, deserves all the hate it gets for making whitespace syntactically significant - I even prefer Go's hamfisted
go fmtapproach to a forced syntax to python's bullshit.I agree but still you can oftentimes expect that the average person's initial reaction to be somehow reluctant... until they understand it. it's like those foods and drinks that you might need to try a couple times before you start enjoying them.
Oh, definitely, they can look bizarre and confusing before you understand them.
