Practical Language Comparison.jpeg

This is a summary of the butthurt surrounding languages.

Assembly

  • Verbose as fuck.
  • Based Motorola ASM, so many variants, so much serial port downloading.
  • x86 ASM is pretty neat too, also known as PC ASM. Pain in the ass because AT&T is the UNIX standard, and Intel is the DOS standard and they are so close but its the little things that are different. Enough different to be a pain in the dick.

C

  • Minimalistic; requires loading or writing a metric shitton of libraries to get anything done; good indicator of autism.
  • C11 is the latest standard
  • Fast and close to the metal.

C++

  • Clusterfuck of unnecessary shit. The exact opposite of C's minimalism, leaving a million ways to do something and a sense of confusion as to which way is best.

C#

  • Java wannabe. Only recently is it on-par.
  • Microshit botnet inside (TM)

Java

  • >muh VM
  • >muh slowness
  • Made for code monkeys; haven for grok code and spaghetti code alike.
  • >muh long chains of objects
  • >muh portability

Haskell

  • Executable math. Math is 2hard. You do the math.
  • Monads end up infecting everything. Fuck monads.

Lisp

  • Language of the gods. Can do anything, and eloquently to boot. Unfortunately most of us are unable to wield this marvel of logic and can only merely stand back in awe.
  • 9001 implementations. Confuses n00bs.
  • >muh parentheses
  • >I can do that in C too!!!1

Python

  • >muh whitespace
  • Interpreted shit.
  • import solution

Erlang

  • Makes concurrency/multithread shit a breeze.
  • Uses a specialised VM that has a hard time crunching numbers, and an even harder time handling strings.

BASIC

  • >It can do anything C can do, guise!!1
  • Lots of property implementations, only a few decent FOSS ones.
  • Still slower than C
  • >muh goto
