Is this objectively the worst programming language ever made?

>>61654829
no its great. /thread

>>61654829
No, that'd be C++

>>61654829
Nooe, but I don't really see the point of or a good niche for Go anyhow.

>>61654829
I nominate the worst as PHP or Makefile
but Golang is certainly the most overrated language I've ever seen

>>61654829
how the fuck is this blue thing supposed to GO with short feet like these? is this a sick joke?

>>61655254
Go is not going anywhere... g-get it?

>>61655743
$ go get

>>61654829
No. PHP, Perl, Java, C++, C, and many other langs inhabited by Pajeets exist, and are much worse than Go is.

What is the subjectively worst programming language

>>61656172

C++

>>61656245
Isn't that one of the most useful?

>>61656255
It is, but it's also clumsily designed and full of weird gotchas or unfixable legacy mistakes so it's a popular target for hate.

>>61656255

It is still very used but its pretty much overbloated. C is far better than C++ and i think C is more used when it comes to large software, such as databases.

Not to mention OS kernels etc.

Go is better than quite a few languages. Rust is pretty good, too. I don't know why /g/ shits on either of them, they're both great.

Yeah, they're a little slower than pure C, but a lot of stuff is. To my knowledge, both languages are pretty much on par with C++'s speed.

I guess you could use R or D instead.

No? C is standard language for teaching students, it doesn't mean Pajeets actually code in it or know it.

They mostly love Java and other crap like PHP

>>61656485
But then why every Indian programmer I know can only programin in C# and maybe PHP.

It's a draw with C, because the languages and the ecosystems are equally limited and aimed at brainlets.

Cobol

>>61655938
Perl is great if you aren't retarded.

It's the worst modern programming language.

This is objectively one of the shittiest threads on this board. Congrats for not contributing OP. Same goes for any other language hate/shilling thread.

What's wrong about C++? Our lecturer likes it and he's a really knowledgeable guy and a great programmer. On the other hand he constantly makes fun of Java.

>>61660477
C++ is one of those languages which is really easy to hate since it's so messy and gives you a million ways to shoot yourself in the foot.

>>61660477
it's a clusterfuck of rules and paradigms, you can pick a good subset or bad, and continue

>>61660303
Go back to your manchild /v/ and phone threads. Language hate threads are the only good threads on this shit board.

>>61660703
>>61660883
OK, so the language itself is bad, or is it just hated by bad programmers, because it's so complex and thus difficult to learn?

>>61662882
It's a bit of both. While I believe C++ is easily the most powerful language of its kind, the syntax could be much more regular and sane without losing any of its expressive capability.

>>61662882
C++ is extremely large and complicated. 99.99% of the people that claim to know C++ don't actually know C++ and create an average of 1 buffer overrun for every three lines of code (confirmed by multiple studies by both Microsoft and Valgrind). The number of people that actually know C++ and how all the features interact enough to use it safely is in the low double digits and none of them are posting here.

>>61662882
>is it just hated by bad programmers, because it's so complex and thus difficult to learn
It's not complex if you're not a brainlet. There's a reason people who are used to C++ do not switch to another meme language (see how D doesn't get any traction decades after its first release).

>>61662993
> t. a programmer that writes a buffer overflow every 2 lines

>>61662882
Nothing wrong with sepples. The hate it gets comes from having too many idiots in computing. For example serious research in scientific computing is done in C++ (Fenics, Sofa, etc).

Wow fucking incredible dude you truly are the Steve Wozniak of our times. Now fuck off back to >>>/r/eddit.

>>61663203
There are languages that can access memory directly in safe, or at the very least far less error prone, ways and there are plenty more than can limit the scope of the damage.

You can't write secure C++. This isn't debatable. People far, far smarter than you with far more experience can't do it.

>>61663249
>You can't write secure C++.
Thanks for proving my point, idiot.

>>61663132
Yet safety critical embedded systems are written in C, but you'd know that if you weren't another of these /g/ memesters.

>>61663331
C and C++ are the best choice on some platforms and I never said otherwise. Nobody here is working on those platforms though and nobody that regularly posts on /g/ is anywhere close to capable of writing good C++.

>>61654829
Okay OP, is it just that you're lonely and mentioning Go guarantees replies, or are people trying to raise Go's mind share, positive or negative, so much that there are always multiple threads up?

malebolge, mainly because it was designed that in mind

>>61663390
>I know every single poster on /g/

>>61655051
I'd hardly call a language that you forget exists until you type "go" into the search bar, think it automatically selects "google," hit enter, and then create a google search for "go," which, obviously, brings up the language first, "overrated."
