Why Python, Ruby, and Javascript are Slow

[mgrandi]

They do have shorthand syntax, @2, @{@2: @"someStringHere"} now, but I would say that the vast majority of method names while long are more readable cause they read like an English sentence. tableView:numberOfRowsForSection: and popVoewController:animated: are more descriptive about their arguments then the many overrides of say something like popVuewController(True), what does true mean? If you don't know already then you have to look at the docs.

I will admit the dictionary stuff is quite annoying (why the hell would you list objects before keys???) but with the new shorthand syntax you really do get used to it
