Great point re: the “Bespoke” style of programming. It takes some unlearning and getting used to tacit programming [0] and trains [1] to appreciate this. I’ve worked on fairly complex systems using kdb/q that are a joy to debug because the codebase is a handful of files. q is admittedly a more simplified and “mainstream” cousin of J, but allows a fair bit of expressiveness. The powerful data store (kdb) and q-sql that comes along with it makes it one of the most concise data platforms ever. Too bad it’s not free for commercial use!
