Well, I've actually omitted everything that Matt said - I wasn't going to be
able to type in enough to keep postnews happy.
Basically, Matt says that he doesn't see much value in things like lint and
strongly typed/modular languages for "experienced" programmers. (At least
that's the way I read it.)
I couldn't disagree more strongly. I want the computer to do the grunt-work,
not me. I'm human - I'm fallible - I forget things.
I just wanted to add my little bit to what is (unfortunately) likely to
grow into a huge and long argument. Please folks, can we keep these
religious arguments out of the newsgroups and in private mail, where they
belong?
