Ive been programming for 20 years and recently started playing in racket and all my faded enthusiasm sprung back and got excited about programming again. Is it that its a new thing to me and we like new shiny things? Well, I find thats not the case. To me it feels that I can express ideas/idioms much much easier within Racket/scheme and after a few weeks i started enjoying the parens quite a bit. I’ve also been playing with htdp libraries and it’s been quite fun, simple and effective. My new personal projects are going to be in Racket now.
