Thanks you guys, i feel like you are the guys invented democracy to save us from SO tyranny.

Small Suggestion: All caps in Title makes the title very harder to read. so instead of WHAT IS BEST EDITOR can you change like What is Best Editor.

Every Smart guys is trying to bring Lisp's functionality in C Syntax. But i'm stupid , i directly use Lisp. Even its hard and that's why i'm stupid.

Its simple Logic,

Programmers Those who use C = C Programmers. Scheme = Scheme Programmers. Common Lisp = Common Lisp Programmers. Clojure = Clojure Programmers.

Programmers Who use Clojure != Common Lisp Programmers.

So Please, please stop posting about Clojure in Common Lisp Posts.

I don't want Clojure solution for Common Lisp problem.

Languages to master 14 years ago

In My opinion The 5 Languages would be

  1. Mind Bender (Common Lisp or Haskell)
  2. Social/Internet (Java Script) (Browser/Node.js)
  3. Numerical analysis (Mathematica or Matlab or R or Excel)
  4. Inside the Engine (C/Linux)
  5. Money Machine (I want big salary) ( C++ )

Your Advise reminds me a Quote from the movie God Father Part-II. "Hyman Roth always makes money for his partners. One by one, our old friends are gone. Death, natural or not, prison, deported. Hyman Roth is the only one left, because he always made money for his partners. ". Anyway good Advice.

The Next Microsoft 14 years ago

Your design made me to like Microsoft and Look Current Microsoft product in different Eye. Believe me I'm a Linux Hacker.

you have nailed wisdom to these younger 16 years old crowd. But nowadays younger crowd needs fashion,pizzaz,Prestige etc. in my experience learning about Message Brokers is very important than learning new language.

Is the Author is 13 years old. When did he really start programming.? just wondering After 16 years of programming experience still not able to decide which language is best. At last Settled for C and Common Lisp. But still have Doubts. As per Personal Experience Both Language is more than enough for me.

he is the guy who changed common lisp eco system. After quicklisp nobody ever gonna write abandonware. Thanks Mr. Beane.

For common lisp development emacs SLIME is the Best for foreseeable future.

For C++ i would use QT Creator. For scripts such as shell , Python VIM is great.

For One time if you see splash screen its not a problem. But for example if visual studio crashes so often and it makes you see to splash so often then as author mentioned i would feel like i would commit seppuku. They should try caching or something .

Would someone Please kill Indian MBA degree(IIM (These clowns take freshers for Managing Company wtf)). These guys still live in industrial Age. And being an Indian i can tell most of them are still in colonial age (Indian Administrative Service Wannabe which is created to create clerks (now a days nobody knows what clerk is) for East India Trading Company)thinking industrial age is new century thought or something.

After 40 years of software Evolution such as Internet, Social Network is creating Revolutions (Arab Spring) and OpenSource Software is running in Mars etc.. these guys still haven't got clue about what is Software and How to Create it.

And M.B.A degree is killing common sense in these people and they are effectively making dinosaurs such as media company executives who's riding Titanic and thinking themselves as Titans.

As per Calling Programmers Coders please don't listen to these clowns. They live in way past and accessing future with knowledge created by East India Trading company(before 1857).

As per my knowledge and my experience The Best way to predict future is by creating it.

So Please Get yourself openSource Unix Box. Learn PHP,JavaScript,C++,CommonLisp,Python, Bash etc.. Create Something futuristic such as TheMatrix etc... That way we can control future.

Please please don't listen to These TCS/Wipro/Infosys Solution Architect's limited knowledge. And Fellow Indian Engineers please don't ask any advice from these clowns. If anybody is offering advice ask github Link before listening to them.

Man is Tool Making Animal. Make Innovative Tools and make a better future. Evolution will take care Rest.. Sorry for the ranting I can't stand some MBA wannabe calling me Coder. I really want to be called as a Programmer.
