Comment on What is your favorite programming language?

I didn’t have an answer for a very long time. Or more seriously, the answer was “the 9ne that paid the most”. I’ve run the gamut of popular languages, C, C++, Java, Javascript, perl, ruby, Python, Visual Basic, VB.Net, C# and F#.
But the last couple years it’s really been C#. The pace of development on the language/runtime has really picked up with yearly releases. The features that are added and iterated on are expressive and intuitive. You can tell from the discussion posts on how a feature is being considered for inclusion is thoughtful and deliberate. It really feels like the language is in good hands.
Just wish those hands weren’t Microsoft.
