Ask HN: Are there any languages that implemented all the best features?
There are many different bad designs in programming languages. i was wondering which language has implemented most the best programming language features from different languages. Oz attempts to be multiparadigm; I liked their taxonomy but haven't tried the language itself. (still waiting for "ADD ONE TO COBOL GIVING COBOL", myself) perl6 is such a eierlegendewollmilchsau. oops, now called raku For the German colloquialism challenged (adapted from a GT translation): An egg-laying wool milk sow is a colloquial expression that describes something (a thing, person or problem solution) that "only has advantages, satisfies all needs, meets all requirements" This is an image of this animal http://bleaklow.com/images/2003/p6_cover.gif I also have a similar pic for pony, which is actually performant, and not designed by committee.
