FORTH? Nope... still asm at the bottom.

I call shenanigans!



view as:

Either my sarcasm detecter is broken today, or you've never read the source code of a FORTH system. Or perhaps you are commenting that FORTH doesn't have high-level programming constructs -- but of course FORTH allows meta-programming, so you roll your own.

I'm saying that it's shenanigans that he's justifying disqualifying FORTH as a systems programming language because "it's ASM at the bottom." So I'm on your side of that debate.
