I'm somewhat fond of how function definitions and function expressions look identical. You don't need to remember some different syntax just to insert a small function somewhere.

I also really like that the language doesn't treat double quoted and single quoted strings differently. A lot of languages don't care either way these days, but it's still nice to not need to constantly remember to use double quotes like in C or Elixir.
