That discussion was one of the weirdest flamewars we've had on HN, complete with an unseemly fight between programming language designers. If you're going to comment in this one, please follow the guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html) and take care not to repeat what happened there. Remain scrupulously respectful, regardless of how wrong you think someone else is or of how you feel about something. Then your points will be more convincing, and you'll be helping to sustain the community rather than harming it.
