Erlang is crap. That’s what I think. Now don’t feel bad if you are an Erlang fanatic. And please don’t get mad. I always tell it like I see it. That’s my style. Besides, I think all programming languages are crap. Right now, I just have a specific bone to pick with the <A href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming">functional programming model</A> and Erlang in particular. It is not the panacea that its supporters make it out to be. It is a false god, in my opinion. It has nothing really interesting or revolutionary to offer to a bug-haunted computing world that is suffering from a chronic productivity crisis and is currently undergoing a painful transition from sequential processing to massive parallelism. Without further ado, here are the seven deadly sins of Erlang:<BR /></P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/6587A1E7-0647-4050-8AE5-EE50A2CCA5DE/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
