Programming Languages

Interesting article on various programming languages by Steve Yegge. Unfortunately it took me three times the normal speed to read it because I had to look up not only words (what is a polyglot) but also references (I obviously know nothing about Perl or Larry Wall). This article is like a good movie or a bad diet ... it leaves me wanting more but realizing it takes way too much time to satisfy.

Thank you to Tim Bray for pointing me here.
