Andy Hunt loves the Arduino and Raspberry Pi, hates JavaScript

cerberusss writes: In an interview with Best Programming Books, Andy Hunt mentions he "hates languages that introduce accidental complexity, such as JavaScript—what a nightmare of pitfalls for newbies and even seasoned developers (...) My go-to languages are still Ruby for most things, or straight C for systems programming, Pi or Arduino projects".

Andy Hunt is the co-author of The Pragmatic Programmer and one of the seventeen software developers that published the Agile Manifesto.

Futhermore, he mentions that "I tend to do more experimenting and engineering than pure code writing, so there’s occasionally some soldering involved ;). Code is just one tool of many".
