title: Talk to Your Kids About YAML or Their Friends Will
---
<p><a href="http://eng.genius.com/blog/2009/04/15/yaml-gotchas/">This article</a> nicely illustrates my beef with <a href="http://yaml.org/">YAML</a>;
namely, the YAML grammar is far too complicated. Complexity in data
serialization and exchange formats should be avoided, because it
virtually guarantees subtle interoperability problems. </p>
<p>If you need to exchange structured data in a language-agnostic format,
do me a favor and use <a href="http://json.org/">JSON</a> instead.</p>
