My first reaction to Dart was "jeez, yet another c-like, java[script] clone". I hated it, I want a world without stupid braces and semicolons. It doesn't seem to bring anything new…

> I wish something similar could be developed for Ruby. There's something like Pypy for Ruby already: It is Pypy itself. Pypy is a framework for implementing jitted dynamic languag…

1) Is the JIT standalone? No easy answer. Pypy is a complex project, not just a python implementation. Pypy is a complex toolchain, a framework, for implementing dynamic languages.…

I love cs with all my heart. It makes client-side programming fun and enjoyable. It made me forget my dream of having someday python running in the browser. Cs is just as good. My …

Now seriously, it's not just the way it looks. If you never spent at least half an hour playing with a language such as python or ruby, you will probably never know what is it that…

You can still use parenthesis if you find them more readable. Coffeescript won't complain.

Alright, I buy your argument. Now go and do everything in assembler, right now. Deadline is yesterday. What are you looking at?? Go!!!

What's the problem with the extra compilation step? You can simple use coffeescript by adding "script type=text/coffeescript" tags to your code while developing, and when you are d…

Dude, this poll is useless. If someone is voting here, chances are that he was looking for info on coffeescript, so he is already aware of this slanguage and is interest in it. The…

Not just a hack. Recognized developers such as Brendan Eich (creator of javascript) or Douglas Crockford (author of Javascript: The Good Parts) say that Coffeescript is good stuff.…

Many people seem to ignore that pypy is not a new project. It's been on the works for more than 8 years now.

I agree with Mike Pall's view. And the current crop of Javascript engines proves that too. Simplicity wins over complexity. Although I still hope pypy will deliver on its promisses…

Thanks. That's a very good answer :-)

Sorry but I need to know this: What does "Pony" mean in a nerdy-geek humor context?

Very simple: this is a PEP to improve the state of "Cpython" (this is the main python implementation right now, and has been since the invention of python). Pypy, on the other hand…
