Comment on Programming Language Checklist (2011)

Comments

what we need is a gradually typed lazy / eager language that helps to combine functional, imperative, concurrent and object-oriented styles, allows functions to use method syntax (and vice versa), with (and without) sigils & twigils, and an entirely new regex syntax that packs a whole ragbag of weird stuff such as unicode graphemes, grammars, junctions, allomorphs, sequences, hyper (>>) and (Z/R) metaoperators, sets, bags and mixes, coercion types and a MOP then we can check all the boxes (aka raku)
