C# Language Specification 5.0

Re:C# Language Specification 5.0 by modarts on Monday June 24, 2013 @11:13PM (#5937295)

I'd be hard pressed to find another language that I'd want to use for my server side development work. It's hands down the most expressive c style language in existence. Coupled with Visual Studio, the amount of quality software that can be written in a short amount of time is nothing short of amazing. (This is coming from someone who was a Rails dev in their previous life)

Can you explain what you find more expressive in c# compared to ruby?

I've been a c# developer for over 5 years and I have to disagree with almost everything you said. Ruby blew my mind when I learned it.

He did say c style language. I went from Ruby to Java. I have found it very hard to accept the Rails maintenance story since then.

I am sorry but the amount of time taken to install visual studio is also not short of amazement.
