  • JavaScript does the same with better package management.
  • same with much other languages, JavaScript, cargo, rust, go, etc.
  • in what languages is this a problem?
  • worst class implementation still in use (close second, C++)

    Try typing your umpteenth semi colon and curly brackets. That shit ain't aesthetics, it's miserable.

    Javascript is owned by Oracle. Go is made by Google. I release that they're both open source, but it's rad that we have a language that's on board with the free software movement, and that's created and maintained by volunteers.

    Passing arguments in static typed language are a pain 😩

    If avoiding typing extra characters is high on your list of priorities for a language then you need more experience programming. Higher priorities should revolve around ensuring the code you write works.

    JavaScript is not owned by Oracle, that's Java, which has nothing to do with JavaScript besides curly braces. JavaScript has no license. There is a public reference spec and various (sometimes conflicting) implentations of an interpreter.

    Despite official releases of java being proprietary, there are always compatible releases of OpenJDk which are GPLv2

    Google doesn't own Go either, some ex-google engineers did start it but its BSD license.

    :warf-wtf: are you using different types for the same arguements? This is a first class way to break your program. Good python development is constantly manually checking for programmer error as though it was user error. Static languages just do that for you.
