You're absolutely right. After having learned 24 languages in my life now, i exclusively work with highly sophisticated code generators.
Much higher developed, that just the https://jasonelle.com/ example i mentioned before. Purely functional, of course. But sometimes i return to C and inline Assembler (Intel, ARM, Sparc (in my student times), RISC-V) Java? Never, ever in my life i would touch such crap. Lisp, I program since AutoCAD 2.6 and Autolisp, a Common Lisp. You know, why i am a 'blowhard'. Because i can! Have fun! Am Mittwoch, 6.
