Because you can't programme with a meme. :^)

>and general programming?
dynamic typing
slow JIT compiler instead of proper AOT compiler
not ready

Because you're obviously mentally retarded.

It is the language of the future, check http://julialang.org/ , read up

It has few libraries right now but in the future it is going to be used everywere, it is faster than C in some cases and it is easy to learn like python,

So deluded.

They are not into web design.

That's not very hard though. These language get compiled at runtime. Once past the warmup stage that code runs pretty much at the same speed.
However, the bottleneck isn't calculation/instruction speed but memory access.

Only languages that allow you to work with raw memory like C/C++ are good for that.

thats actually a good

Because I'm using Python

Dynamically typed, garbage collected.

The language and efosystem is immature, just like you. I've written Julia packages and liked it, but I wouldn't bank my daily work on it just yet.

what this guy said.

from my perspective, R has just a better ecosystem going for it. that and i use ggplot2 for my graphics. gadfly seems like an option, but i need more incentive.

Because any kind of lisp/scheme is already better.
Except Clojure.

Ruby and Python do general purpose programming just fine, and both have rather nice libraries for scientific computing. They may not be fast, but if I cared about performance, I'd use C++.

because I want a job kind sir

>>57738883
Because I use FORTRAN
