Comments on: This year’s programming languages http://kosmaczewski.net/2007/01/30/this-years-programming-languages/ sin incertidumbre no hay novedad, sin novedad posible no hay más que repetición y, por lo tanto, negación del otro como un ser libre: el ser libre es un ser incierto.

Thanks for your comments. And by the way, I've got Brooks' masterpiece in my bookshelf ;) It was in <a href="/2005/11/20/my-bookshelf-part-iii/" rel="nofollow">part 3 of that article series!</a> And I agree wit you, it's an absolutely brilliant, amazing book. Even almost 35 years after its publication, it's an excellent reading. Finally, thanks for the pointers about Lisp! I will most probably have it as my 2008 programming language. Hi Mike!

I will also look more closely at Erlang. I would put Haskell in a similar class--it's also well worth learning. Lisp arguably should come before either of these in your education. I could argue that you're not really a good programmer in any language until you know Lisp. Also, I didn't see Brooks' Mythical Man Month on your bookshelf. This is *the* book--it was written in the early 70s (?) and everything else still pales by comparison. Interesting articles. I will also look more closely at Erlang.
