XFaCE | qu1j0t3: Really dude? C is such a bad language? Really? | Apr 19 15:27 |
qu1j0t3 | lol | Apr 19 15:28 |
qu1j0t3 | the language isn't bad. but people are the problem. | Apr 19 15:28 |
qu1j0t3 | we need C family languages out of the mainstream | Apr 19 15:29 |
qu1j0t3 | but there is a bizarre obsession with them among young programmers | Apr 19 15:29 |
MinceR | what should they use instead? | Apr 19 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | software engineering is in a direly bad state | Apr 19 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | MinceR: appropriate languages | Apr 19 15:30 |
MinceR | what languages do you consider appropriate? | Apr 19 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | what best models the problem. | Apr 19 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | the ignorance in the industry is staggering | Apr 19 15:30 |
MinceR | and what makes you think that moving away from C-family languages is going to help the state of software engineering at all? | Apr 19 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | LOL | Apr 19 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | MinceR: are you a working programmer? | Apr 19 15:31 |
MinceR | yes | Apr 19 15:31 |
qu1j0t3 | good stuff | Apr 19 15:31 |
qu1j0t3 | use what you like | Apr 19 15:31 |
MinceR | so why is it a problem if they like C? | Apr 19 15:31 |
qu1j0t3 | lol | Apr 19 15:31 |
qu1j0t3 | qu1j0t3 | the ignorance in the industry is staggering | Apr 19 15:31 |
MinceR | C causes ignorance? | Apr 19 15:31 |
qu1j0t3 | C was a fine language for a programmer starting a career in 1990. | Apr 19 15:31 |
qu1j0t3 | it's 2012, though. | Apr 19 15:32 |
MinceR | it's still a fine language, but it's not worth focusing on a single language | Apr 19 15:32 |
MinceR | (and it never was) | Apr 19 15:32 |
qu1j0t3 | exactly | Apr 19 15:32 |
qu1j0t3 | i agree 100% | Apr 19 15:32 |
qu1j0t3 | i'm not knocking the language. i'm knocking the systemic ignorance | Apr 19 15:32 |
qu1j0t3 | anyway, i gotta work | Apr 19 15:33 |

TechrightsSocial | @schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: Modest proposal to Canonical: #Ubuntu could legally fork linux and just remove some branding, then call it the "Ubunu kernel". PR problem solved. ;-) | Apr 19 15:56 |
schestowitz | "That's an interesting idea. However, the 99% of the world that doesn't use Ubuntu (or a free OS in general) doesn't care about kernels, or other plumbing. The fixation on plumbing and the insistence on co-branding amongst some free software advocates can actually scare people away from Ubuntu (and other OS'es). An experiment: Ask 10 people at random on the street what kernel is on their computer. Let's compare notes." | Apr 19 15:56 |
