And I get called a troll and other names when I list half a
dozen things wrong with D, my posts get removed/censored, etc,
all because I try to inform people not to waste time with D
because it's a broken and failed language.
*sigh*
Phobos, a piece of useless rock orbiting a dead planet ... the
irony.
Is there any PL that doesn't have multiple issues? Look at Swift.
They keep changing it, although it started out as _the_ big
thing, because, you know, it's Apple. C#, Java, Go and of course
the chronically ill C++. There is no such thing as the perfect
PL, and as hardware is changing, PLs are outdated anyway and have
to catch up. The question is not whether a language sucks or not,
the question is which language sucks the least for the task at
hand.
PS I wonder does Bill Hicks know you're using his name? But I
guess he's lost interest in this planet and happily lives on Mars
now.
