Oh god, I feel this. Why can't there be a sane language‽

But the Lord came down to see the ~~city~~ OS and the ~~tower~~ app the people were building. The Lord said, “If as one people ~~speaking~~ programming the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.”

So the Lord scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the ~~city~~ OS. That is why it was called Babel—because there the Lord confused the language of the whole world. From there the Lord scattered them over the face of the whole earth.

There are 2 types of programming languages

The type everyone keeps complaining about
The type no one uses

People complain about perl, but no one uses perl.

It would have to be written by sane people.

Computer programming, regardless of language, is hard. The computer does exactly what you tell it to.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Yes. That being said, it matters which language you choose. COBOL is always a bad choice, unless writing in COBOL is the whole point. There isn't really a universal best choice, either. Python is often a good one, but if you're doing something big it will become this meme.

Hahahahahhahaha

While Java js definitely one of the best, it still has some quirks that you need to know about.
