let me be the first here to point out that C and C++ are complete garbage. there's a reason why most big projects developed in C++ are entirely by businesses- it's because businesses are the only things that can afford the relatively tiny increase in performance C/C++ give compared to things like Rust, D, Go, Cobra and even Java. You often need really large teams to efficiently work with C/C++, which is another reason why Linux has so many contributors. I've been working in various companies with C/C++ for years now, and my god, it's hell
I mean, take this example: Minecraft was made entirely in Java. Why? Because Notch wanted the relatively okay performance of Java and the **ability of Java to allow you to put together large projects on your own**.
You do need large teams to do highly efficient c++
There are very little successful C/C++ projects make by single (or even two) people
Notch started with the Infiniminer source code <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>
then, take D. D is a great language, but the ecosystem for it is a barren wasteland and nobody cares
the software development industry is a mess, and the SJWs and the lot are only making it messier
by essentially obliterating everything that was half-decent and making everything equally shit, just like the soviets
N++(the game) was coded in C++
can't wait to try the first OS coded in Golang <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>
I'm not talking about operating system development. The majority of my work as an employee in various companies programming C/C++ was related to developing modern applications, and seriously, C/C++ suck for that
can't wait to control my first microcontroller in Golang <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>
we all do different things
youre calling them bad languages overall
jsyk golang is shit but it was an example
D is pretty great though xD
high and low level languages shouldnt really be compared in this way
well, D is a compiled language and it literally calls itself BetterC
because it is BetterC
just as fast as C, yet with all of the pointless shit figured out
yet nobody uses it even though its old
maybe too obscure
well, a lot of companies use it, and there **is** a community, it's just not big enough
Didn't Uncle Bob address this in that video I linked the other day?
Ill take a program made in these shitty languages over anything that use JS
it will run faster and sometimes thats what matters most
but i use Atom editor even though its slow as fuck ass balls ass javascript. Annoying but not crucial
but basically, my point was that we literally aren't doing anything to challenge them
the left, I mean
even though they continue to win, almost every single time
i dont have much pull in the linux kernel community tbh
i just have to study so i can write better code in not fag langs than them
you fight by winning
being the best
when youre the best, all the people that matter can tell the difference
i mean, can I just point out that the left are literally the fucking borg
yes but we dont have an ``:old_news:`` emoji
i dont like coders spending my ram for me, personally
well, if you imagine them like that, it makes sense that there's nothing we can do, because we aren't a gigantic tribe of complete retards hooked up together via social media to create the most powerful (and evil) hive mind on Earth
kind of a wild explanation, but I guess it works
