Is English the Perl of human languages?

C is just as bad

int i;
for(i = 0; i < 10; i++){ /* do stuff */ }

int i = 0;
for(; i < 10; i += 1){ /* do stuff */ }

int i = 0;
while(i < 10){
/* do stuff */
i++;
}

perl 6 is the perl of human languages

C++.
You can do the same shit about a trillion different ways, and none of them are compatible with each other, and some will actively crash / fail to even compile if you use them together.

C++ is more so than most.

And the funny thing, the funniest part, basically none of it is syntactic sugar.
Almost all of it is as close as it gets to hardware languages in regards to most high-level shit.

This is true. Its why the Britain was the best at colonization. If culture is the algorithm, then language is what the algorithm is programmed in, so British civilization by virtue of being based on a simple language became the most ubiquitous "algorithm"

I'd have to say that C++ is the English of programming languages. It is just so common. Maybe not the most common like Java or JavaScript but common enough.

To expand further on the metaphor, nigs are like sub-par hardware that can't run advanced western algorithms which is why the develop pidgin languages since they are less "abstracted" and closer to the biological "hardware" similar to Assembly.
