Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

It is German adoption into English

I doubt that.
The English word for the German "spiel" is "game".
The English spiel means something entirely different.

Thanx, My comment was missing a question mark? You answered it.

Kinks are good. Old school Brit band. Listened to their songs on car radio on the way to the drive in.

It occurs to me that my least favorite programming language is not actually determined by the language but rather by the coders writing awful code in that language. Even C# fits the "least favorite language" with some of the crap I've seen.
I suppose I'm overthinking the question, but it was interesting when I started writing pure JavaScript for some personal projects and discovered I didn't hate it. I still prefer TypeScript, but my loathing of JavaScript was actually because of the code I had to touch that other people wrote. Functions that were a couple thousand lines long. Nested functions. Nested promises. Absurdly complex business logic implemented on the front-end with dozens of nested if-else.
The way I was writing Javascript made working with Javascript a pleasant process. Anyways, it's an interesting realization (to me at least) that my dislike of a language is often based on my dislike of the previous coder's code.

While in general I agree with you, as a language designer it is easy to fall into the trap of saying that spaces and page layout don't matter. This makes a fragment like:

On the other hand... allowing the developer to format his code as he likes is better than requiring the developer to format his code a certain way.
For the most part, C-like languages don't even require line breaks, which makes code generation much easier.

True enough! See the bad example of Go where you must place the brace on the same line as if and else .

Well, it has features that make it a compelling choice in some cases. And to heck with it: I wrote programs in FORTRAN where you had to start in column 7 and place continuation mark in column 6. If I survived that, I'm sure going to survive a misplaced brace

That's a tough one, you sir, have more patience than me.
