Future of C#


If Microsoft turn F# into a product and place it alongside C# and VB, will
many people migrate from C# to F#?

Jon, don't waste your time selling fine craft to pawns... 95% of IT
people are happily writing and refactoring all the time tons of
verbose bug-ridden C-like code... human stubbornness is a fact of
life.

besides, which people exactly are we talking about? I'm pretty sure
most codemonkeys out there have never ever started an extra thread by
themselves, as easy as the API makes it. They connect to database and
initiate a GUI, and that's about it... that's your 95% mainstream
target developers...
