Gluon – A static, type-inferred and embeddable language written in Rust
Looks really interesting. The readme actually got me started with lots of good examples.<p>Side note though: I won't ever use a symbols-instead-of-words language unless I have to.<p><pre><code>    let { (*>), (<*), wrap } = import! std.applicative
</code></pre>
This is not my idea of good language syntax. I like jr developers, non-X language developers, hardware guys, and even graphic designers to be able to understand my code.<p>Consider simple string concatenation. This is what it looks like in Objective-C:<p><pre><code>    NSString *one = @"Hello";
    NSString *two = @"World";
    NSString *three = [[one stringByAppendingString:" "] stringByAppendingString:two]
</code></pre>
Total fail for something so simple.
