I said it in jest, sorry. I wrote a bit of PostScript because I absolutely had to and it was painful, even though I was thrilled to eventually push through.

But I'm very particular about syntax, so the reverse polish notation was enough to upset me. Needless to say, I appreciate Lisp for its power and conceptual simplicity but would never choose to use it.

Out of interest, which programming language do you prefer?

Oh, the most boring ones. Anything with a C-like syntax is off to a good start.

I like pragmatic languages, with minimum boilerplate.

If I had to list: C, JavaScript, Python and PHP, in no particular order. And I like Bash too, even if it’s less a language and more just a thin veneer of control flows, loops and variables for controlling other executables, it’s still quite useful.
