it puts food on the table, better than many id say.
C# devs dont even care if you shit talk the language as long as you put it above java
Lmao 😂
I am a C# dev, and I agree
I have just started to learn programming but this jokes are so hilarious 😂 😂
I don't even know that much right now but jokes are too funny
C# is a superfluous language because it came after Java. If C# were first, then Java would be superfluous. Fewer languages in the world = better. We realistically need half a dozen languages for 99% of the world’s programming.
Yes

In the c++ example the leftmost const is actually the one that makes the value const, and the second const makes the pointer constant. Const is applied to the thing to it's left unless there is nothing to it's left, in which case it applies to the right.

This is the first programming tier list where I finally see no Javascript on S tier.
yea, but then PHP is below JS, which is just hilarious. As for 2024 Javascript as a programming language is worse than PHP in nearly every conceivable way.
@@SkywalkerWroc I don't think it is that worse, I'm actually working with it and feels fast and suitable for server-side computing.

But that's fine, it never aspired to be something better. All it wants to do is to hold hands and be hugged.

You wouldn't ask a child "WHY YOU DO THAT?" in anger right? It's a child, be nice...

@@m96fa40 It's 22 keywords in total, none of those are unique.
Learning it takes an afternoon.
It's a glue language supposed for tacking stuff together, made to interact with C.
This gives it the power to be easily integrated with almost everything.
It is basically the home assistant of programming languages, can do tons of stuff but has its caveats.
e.g. like C it does as told, regardless of if it's a smart move to do that.

You always know someone loves a programming language when they know every single specific flaw in depth as if they had run across it a thousand times.
I strangely relate to that feeling of Java having a place in your heart. I can easily list all the reasons I don’t like Java and yet sometimes I feel homesick for it. Makes no sense.
It's kinda like your first spoken language. You are more likely to think in terminology or concepts based on that first language.
There are many languages I'd rather write code in, but Java really isn't as bad as people say it is. Java 1.5 and lower was absolutely awful, but things started getting better in Java 7 and especially 8. Now it actually feels like a modern language.
After spending a lot of time in the TS world, you start to realise how nice it is to have explicit interfaces at run time, nominal sealed classes, and real enums with properties and method and whatever.
The only issue is that the Java world is the opposite of the JS world, instead of hype driven development there’s still companies on Java 8 who don’t trust recent LTS versions still.
Oh and that exception situation is weird.
Kotlin’s a nice sweet spot.
Until you realise everything needs to be an object that modifies itself @@CottidaeSEA

The idea that PHP's only use case is web development is way wrong. I have a very large neural network for machine learning running in PHP with no web interface to it... people that hate on PHP have either never used PHP or haven't used it since version 4... this is just a fact.
Well Python runs like dogcrap and people act like it's the saviour because it has some good libraries. People are too stupid to think for themselves.
@@JamesSmith-cm7sg python is PAINFULLY slow. But yeah, anything you want to do has already been done and published in library or module, so it can be great for prototyping or proof of concept stuff. I would never use it in production though.
@@JamesSmith-cm7sgbecause i can build a prototype for almost anything that will read like english and then compile that to an exe in C or rebuild it with a working model to reference in something like go. And thats if its actually slow, most of the time its more than fast enough and when it isnt, its because your using the built in features wrong, or not using the right ones for the right jobs
Only retards hate on PHP they never used it, they are just taught it's crap and can't judge by their own.
I used version 5 and it was dog water
Correction at 19:05 : It is the other way around. You have to read it from right to left. Here is a breakdown:
const int* const foo(const int* const& ptr) const
1. const int* const
Means that the method returns a const pointer to an int that is const
2. const int* const& ptr
Means that the method takes a reference to a const pointer which points to an int that is const as an argument
3. const
Means that the method cannot change member variables (unless they are marked as mutable or you cast away the const using const_cast)
Personally I find the east const convention more intuitive:
int const *const foo(int const *const &ptr) const;
Now const always acts to the left. int const is constant int, int const * is pointer to constant int, int const * const is constant pointer to constant int, etc. Downside is it's unfamiliar (and code like the above is extremely uncommon), so I don't use it at work to avoid confusing my people.
I so hate mutable, const_cast, friends, ... Fix your model, fix your code. This value should never be changed, but feel free to change it.
@@barongerhardt yeah mutable is terrible except in lambdas, and people use it for the worst reasons.
"Oh I have a getter which caches for performance, so I'll make the cache mutable so the getter can still be const even though the cache means it's no longer const in any sense wee lying is fun"
Getouttahere
Yep I noticed the same! Not writing in C++ every day though, but these things I know.
But what I do not know, is the situation in TypeScript. Is it opposite there? Because that may of course be a large source of confusion then.
Many C family languages have a preceding type notation style, also including Java, C# and Go, but some are more into the trailing form.
I know that like Rust, TS does it's in types trailing notation. So I can really imagine a difference with the const keyword as well.
@@jongeduard Constness is different in JS/TS land.
In JS/TS `const` is used to define a const reference to an object. It's the reference that cannot change, not the object that it points to. Whereas using `let` allows you to later change the reference.
In both cases, you are free to change the properties of the object being referenced.
In TS there's `readonly` which you could apply to properties. This is what statically checks and prevents you from modifying said property.
There's also `as const` which is used to cast all properties of an object as readonly. I believe it's also used to define literal types.
In JS, there's also Object.freeze() which prevents modification of an object's properties.
All in all, a different language. Don't forget that JS is an embedded language and can't do anything practical on its own. Its core and implementation resides in C++ (V8 in Chromium based browsers for ex.) TS is just a static analyzer on top.

I don't know if anyone here reads the comments, but Python is the best language for getting out your ideas. If I have an idea for a program, or a basic app I can do all of it in Python test it maybe even stick with just that if it's good enough. Then once I have everything down, and looking right I can go ahead and recode everything into a language that may be better for what I am trying to accomplish like C.
It's basically pseudocode that compiles, it's awesome
like usable pseudocode
@@bobbodaskank you stole it out of my mouth.
haha! I do the same with Perl...
We need to just stop using Javascript for anything other than front-end scripting. Y'know, the thing it was designed for. It's easy to say JS is a trash language when you use it in a domain it isn't meant to be used.
It's like trying to use Java on something that isn't a blueray player, or Python on a computer. When you use a language not how it is designed to be used, it'll seem like trash.
well even then, C is the best scripting language
@@anon8510 C is a scripting language to avoid writing assembly, so obv all software should be written in it, as there are no bounds to what you can do with it.
Btw, do YOU know what scripting is?
It's trash for frontend scripting too.
Appreciate the python dunk though
@@anon8510 I know, it was a joke :)
@@anon8510 warning: text wall and hot take
scripting is the act of writting short, quick and dirty programs "scripts" or parts of programs, which can be either to alter the behaviour of a preexisting system without recompiling most of it, or for accomplishing tasks as they come up
C shines most in that kind of environment where you don't necessarily want a fancy language complaining about out-of-bounds array accesses or reading uninitialized memory when you either know why you're doing it or don't care about the possible consequences
and with how simple the language is, you want even notice recompiling most script-scope shared objects / mini-programs
try writing a simple single-use command-line program with zero attention given to either security, performance, error tolerance, generalisability, maintainability or readability and you'll find C is the easiest answer in most cases, though sometimes beat by Perl or Python
want to embed a scripting language in an app you're making? you could add a dependency on an interpreter and do complex maneuvers to respect your guest language's assumptions, or you could just dlopen(3) a shared object, probably written in C, that couldn't care less what you do with its memory (not mentioning that if you provide a C API, adapters for many other mainstream languages are trivial to implement (if it isn't automated))
"but manual memory management" - just leak / use an arena
"but no generics" - you won't need them for a script, but if you really must then void * and macros are things
"but mandatory types" - C23 has type inference
"but no data structures" - arrays are all you need
"but integers are finite" - like you're gonna overflow a long long
I've got the top 1 or 2 languages I think everyone can agree on.
1: The one you're most adept at.
2: The second one you're most adept at.
You can fill in the rest.
I don't really love PHP that much, despite I have to use it nearly every day. But E tier is definitely inappropriate
C++ standard library is super ugly for two main reasons: it must only create identifiers defined by the standard or with the reserved double underscore or underscore Capital patterns; and it often wants to share behavior without hitting the C++ issue where each base class must have a separate address by using recursive template definitions and other metaprogramming techniques.
They don't actually write the code with the underscores, btw, it's run through an uglifier script.

Just from the point of view of a large scale deployment- mmm is the one single thing we would have chosen if we had a voice in it.

BRAZIL MENTIONED 🥳 Brazil ♥ ThePrimeagen
LUA is incredibly useful if you ever need to embed a scripting language into an application. And there are a lot more reasons to do this than the average lay person might suspect.
I believe that since all of Valve's games, support modding and Lua is the main scripting language used for them. So I can assume that you can integrate Lua modding in your game easier than with other languages.
Pin on a pointer type is a promise that you can depend on what's in a pointer staying valid as long as the pointer is valid. Unpin on a pointee means that it doesn't need that promise, and that you can move it out anyway.
Pin is needed for generic/library code to be able to trust that it can keep interior pointers around, in particular for async code to keep references to other stack variables around at an await point. You can commonly provide it either by pinning an existing value to the stack with pin!, or moving it to the heap with Box::pin(), both of which prevent you from moving the value out.
Unpin means a type doesn't need to be pinned, or equivalently, that you can safely remove the pin. It can be used either to assert than a type doesn't require pinning, or to allow generic code to let callers have a nicer API if they know it doesn't matter for some type, as methods can be conditionally available on a generic parameter implementing a trait.
A confusing detail is that pinned pointers are themselves a good way to get an Unpin from a value that isn't already Unpin: this is because if it's already pinned, you don't need to work about adding any more pinning.
I've been a developer for 12 years now and I used Java for the first 4 years of it. I do not miss it lol
Still use it. Ingesting 200,000 dns queries per second. our code + Spark, Kafka, Cassandra, Druid. It's awesome.
Even though not first (which was c++) , java was a the one I heavily trained in and got a job for....
😅 still happy I changed group
@@vaisakh_km Java 23 is insanely good. We're writing some amazing stuff and all compiled to native code running bindingly fast! Check out 1 Billion Row Challenge. Only language that was faster was C (and not by much). Reading and processing 1 billion rows in 1.5 seconds!
There are some "things you can do in JS" that TS by default won't let you do even though it is actually safe. But thats more that ALL JS runtimes have certain standard library things behave one way but the spec is more strict. And TS has those all typed to the spec.
Isn't there a declaration you need to make to put Typescript in strict mode?
I am a hobbyist programmer (majored in Economics, so I have some experience in R and Stata). Self taught. A lot of content is really bland and makes it hard to get into. I just want to thank you for bringing your personality into the computer science realm. It makes it a lot easier to be captivated by the content being presented - making it a lot more effective for learning. Sometimes I wish I went to school for computer science instead, but I can honestly say I love economics.
PHP! I built my app with PHP. Great for new developers.
"C# is better than Java" is a ringing endorsement from Primeagen! 😁
Along with a shit ton of bias :)
The rust compilation complete in the end was *chef kiss*
There's actually a problem at 19:34 . you can't return `const int *const` it's actually `const int*`. The other const on the "return value" is redundant in the same way you can't return `const int` from a function. You can do it, syntatically but it has no difference semantically cause the return value is a copy operation, and copies don't preserve const.
If you're consistent, there's no confusion on const-correctness:
int const * const foo(int const * const & ptr) const
I never allow the "left-to-right" exception to const-correct reading rules.
anyone who have worked and learned java enough have a place in their heart for java
I'm using C++ and LUA daily since many years, so they're both S-Tier in my programming languages tiers list (for completely different reasons).
No real opinion on other languages since I rarely use them, ofc there is what I call the "classic webdev duo" (PHP and JS) I use sometime.
Python is also great to make quick program and there is a big community around.
It's like listening to one of the Sklar brothers talk about computer science. I love it.
Take a drink every time ThePrimeagen appears on the video ThePrimeagen is reacting to.
I liked this reaction, it was one of the most iconic I've ever seen... From here I'm talking about Angola.
I don't get the love for C over C++, you can program in C++ exactly like C and benefit from stronger type safety and, if you choose, make use of built in classes, references, templates etc.
There is something nice about the simplicity of C, even if it is not a very practical language.
I think the hate is mainly from when you have to interface with someone else's code abomination. Some people see the language feature set, and have to use the whole language feature set.
@@mattsgamingstuff5867 That makes some sense, but even so, it's just an opportunity to learn features which may be useful to you in the future.
Nice of you to give the dude like 200 subs, well done
He is at 14k subs now
I mean, there is code that will make typescript complain but is allowed in javascript, such as this:
const a = 0;
a = "0";
It will still "transpile" the code to javascript, but it will also tell the user that there is an error. Not sure if you can call it a superset if it doesn't think it's valid.
19:17 you're supposed to read it from right to left!
const T* const
^ a const pointer
const T* const
^ to a const value
But a better way to write const in c++ is "T const* const" (or for example "T const&")
It makes much more sense, because you can literally read it (from right to left) as "const pointer to a const T"
How in the world did the CORONATION STREET theme tune make the start of this vid
That's what I was thinking.
A real man of culture
I learned from one UA-camr that to read C++ consts if it's in the beginning (which means there's nothing to its left to make it const) then it makes the first thing to its right a constant, but wherever else you put it it makes the thing to its left constant
im someone who is pretty basic in there programing ability, and I recently tried rust, go and c# (from allways using js and python) and I have to say that c# is really nice, if I'm going to use types I might as well use a language where its built in and has great intelisense instead of typescript which I never got the hang of.
Very cool!!! Got tons of insights, subscribed to you guys!
For those curious, std::pin simply means the memory address is locked, while std::unpin will allow it to change memory locations. For example, if you want rearrange the data to sit in memory better, you can pin specific values to an address and know that they will always be in that location. Not far from describing pinning a note to a cork board.
Now, from what I understand of this, it sounds like a way to memory map. I would think this would be more bare metal, but I don't know what it could be used for outside of memory mapping.

Java changed my life 25 years ago. Rescued me from Window's client server hell and cured me of my Smalltalk fantasies. It has had the greatest impact on the software engineering profession than anything else in history.
Can you elaborate?
@@keldencowan At the time there were three vendors of Smalltalk. The language was awesome. The IDEs they provided were awesome. But the final product was mostly unusable. Connecting to various databases was expensive or not possible. The real problem was they couldn't generate an executable application file with a reasonable footprint. Java came along and gave as an OO language that could do everything for everyone. In those days we made desktop client server apps using PowerBuilder, Delphi(me), and a little later C++ with Visual Studio. They only worked on Windows and required sophisticated UI programming and were a hassle to deploy to users and get them working for everybody.
For use as well. We were in hell with Windows client back in the day. Moved to Java and we were happy. Still use it now. We're doing Data Engineering with Databricks all running on the JVM. Super cool stuff.
I have a question as a cs student, nothing complex or code-related (not looking for a code review atm or anything). I just wanted to ask what’s an average number of languages to know? Is it common in the industry to see programmers that know, say, a dozen languages? I only know 3 right now., but I haven’t written any C++ in years. However, I’ve written a good bit of C lately and some Python and I’ve been curious about what other languages there are out there that aren’t being taught at my university but might be valuable to know and/or fun to use, but I also don’t want to overdo it because it might be the case that it’s better to stick to just a few and specialize in them. I just was hoping for an experienced take on this.
You'll end up specializing in a couple. It's good to get exposed to many of them at least a little but so you know what's out there. But in my experience nobody really specializes in a dozen languages, they have a short list of ones they are very good at.
You have to be prepared to learn another quickly though - one time I took a job writing Java and only knew C#, so had to get up to speed on Java. Then I didn't touch C# for a decade and would have to get up to date on the latest version. Now I'm management and don't code at work, but I'm using Go on personal web projects and C++ on embedded stuff.
Thank you so much for making these Videos! Makes my day!
I subscribed a few days ago. And I just love it when Lua is recognized. I thought I was the only one who loved it locally. (Brazil Mentioned: I'm not from there but dammit! Love that they are mentioned). Then I went to the smoke shop next door from my apartment. All of us college dev's hang out there. Yup. Lua has its fans. Python is my first that I mastered, but Lua is what I first picked up. And I went back to it after success with Python. Lua needs more LOVE....(return a 1 if you know the double meaning of that).
ELixir Mentioned Letss goo
16:04 - idk I think it would make sense, I think you're thinking about the end code, maybe this like works on kernel.
(speculation) Like it's a feature included to allow the compiler to prevent you from compiling moving memory accidentally.
Still if it's that, you know Rust right, do you need a feature for that?
Why do they never include the IEC 61131-3 languages? My vote will forever be for Structured Text. /s
FBD rules
“Php is only useful for the web and even that is easily done with other languages” is one hell of a take lol
You could do web in other languages/stacks, and have an objectively worse time, all the time. PHP Lives and Dies by the Request/Response life cycle which is 👌 perfect for delivering web pages. You know what else is fantastic as a Request/Response? CLI tools. Yes. Absolutely. PHP is so shocking excellent at making CLI tools I’ve stopped using python and C++ in favour of it.
I wouldn’t advocate for an S tier or anything but it absolutely does not belong in E lol it’s way too useful for that
I have done that a bunch. It is a nice middle ground between bash and c.
Many years ago I wrote quite a lot of CLI tools in PHP…
Why?
I didn’t want to add any additional software onto the server, and PHP can handle everything I needed it to do.
It does fantastic at CLI tools, just like a web page, feed it options (query params) and let it generate a response.
Who said it *needed* to be HTML in the output?
15:12 the "Haram" tier sad matlab
Ngl, I like Python. It does what I need it to.. most of the time.
I avoided go for like 5 years and finally tried it this year. It is so easy! It’s easy to compile and is no where near as buggy as JS
honestly i don't understand the dislike towards PHP. The only reason for the hate is it's history. Mainly the fact that the wrong "developers" were using it back in the day and produced some crappy code (ok to be fair it wasn't the best langauge but big changes happen with PHP5). It's not the language to blame is those using it. Leave someone who doesn't know a thing to writte some code on the most secure language and they will mess up big time for sure (yeap i know PHP defender here lol).
19:26 what does returning constant mean?
"Features are for the weaks", man i got you. Don't be afraid to use pointers if necessary. Your responsibility as a programmer is to write good software. Prioritizing safety and an easier path can make you a weaker programmer
Prime: "I think everybody's first language is special"
Me (who's first language was small basic): HELL FUCKING NO
For rust, I think the pinning is the making a object constant without declaring it as such when its created or its value defined, so that another async op needing it, can set it to be a static object, before returning and it can get unpinned
Thoughts on Julia, would love to see you finally use a BLAZINGLY fancy language…
It's a beautiful (except for one-indexing which is hideous) overdesigned buggy mess
@@isodoubIetI think 1 index makes a *lot* of sense for specifically math and science programming which is what Julia focuses on.
@@alst4817 In fact, scientific/math intensive programming is one of the settings where the advantages of zero-based indexing are clearest.
@@isodoubIetit’s good to be different, but that’s a wild take, man. Mathematics (and therefore science) notation has been 1 indexed since Newton and Leibniz. Literally everything is based on that, from matrices, to series, to graph theory to everything that uses numbers…
@@alst4817 It's not at all "wild". It's a perfectly normal and reasonable take. The arguments for 0 indexing have been made in extreme clarity (by Dijkstra) in the 80s and they don't really depend on setting, so it'd be really surprising if math happened to be different.
Try to manipulate any sort of nontrivial series summation with 1-indexing vs 0-indexing, and then tell me which one is easiest. Or try to index into an n-dimensional array. Yes, people in the 1600s didn't know better. That's no excuse for making the wrong choice in the 21st century.
yeahhh finally someone who thinks rust has too many features.
i want someone who thinks like Go/C bare min but you can move the world with it.
prime-lang is a language optimized to be the number one in any tier list.
10:54 if you have stupid js code where you put `let a = 1` and then try to re-assign it to a different type, it will not run in TS even though its valid JS
The way you explain const pointer to const is wrong. The confusion comes from having the left most const in the wrong place. West const should be deprecated because of the confusion it causes.
int const = a constant integer
int const * const = a constant pointer to a constant integer. Just read it from right to left.
My first language was C++. It does not have a special place in my heart.
Templates in c++ are compile time executed and therefore pretty ugly to debug. But they are lightning fast. Together with the STL they provide a sweet spot between performance and usability. Try to outperform the STL in any task. It is very hard and for most impossible.
If you're not extremely careful, they blow up in code space which thrashes your instruction cache. But in the hands of an artist, you can achieve performance not far below hand-coded assembly language.
The cut at the end killed me, well done
I piddled around in BASIC as a kid, and in high school I took a class where we did Pascal on greenscreen dumb terminals. But my first nontrivial programming language was C. I remember the day I learned about pointers. I had a massive headache. Then I added C++ to my toolkit. I liked that wrapping stuff in objects made it easier to pass larger payloads of information around. I did some Java in college for EE (along with some more C, C++, and assembly), and I've dabbled in Python, JavaScript, PHP, MATLAB, and some other esoteric stuff (LabVIEW, anybody?). But when I need to actually get stuff done, I always go back to C or C++.
My younger brother got a CS degree and learned entirely in C#. Then he got a job and saw "malloc" in code he was maintaining. He didn't even know what it was.
25:07 Did I miss a joke ? React is not a language it is just a framework like angular or vue
10:24 dawg it takes me 45 seconds to get my 300 line rust project ready if I use VSC. I just have a slow ass computer
That's why I stopped using vsc
What I want to know is, why is the theme song of Coronation street at the start of the video ?
The rust take is pretty accurate... you know which one I mean.
My first language was basic and yes, it is a special language.
That COBOL Fortran code is definitely COBOL. Statement ending in full stop 👍
I thought PIC was only in COBOL. My memory is fuzzy as I have learned 1,337 programming languages and get the details confused.
The biggest flaw with C# is Microsoft messing substantially with the memory of C# so that it makes me have to rely upon more recent tutorials for anything involving functions or arrays. It works pretty well outside of that so long as you have IntelliSense
What has changed in regards to strings?
About LUa... Sorry but I can't still understand 1/5th of what is in my vim directory. I just see random lists and square brackets everywhere.
So much for an easy language.
Why is C placed higher than C++ if its just C with DLC as said in the video?
@9:41; "Double it, and pass it to the next language."
nobody noticed the dani reference when c# was brought up...
The c++'s std::variant definition mess showed in the video is actually not that horrible (pretty much everything else about std::variant is, though). Most of the typing is only namespace resolution. Then, the goal is to enable or disable the usual copy/move constructors/assignment operators based on the properties of the types in the variant. It makes the top level of std::variant trivial as all operators can now be defaulted. Private inheritance is a very usefull metaprogramming feature to conditionnally define member functions (and sometimes variables) based on template parameters properties.
2:32 The thing about Google is that you never know if they help you out with information while selling your ass to the highest bidder; hence trash.
Haram-tier is pretty funny.
C is god tier if and only if you are willing to spend years of your life perfecting your understanding of all of its underlying elements. If literally anybody else uses it, the codebase will eventually become garbage. By the way, at 19:22, the first const means a constant int, and the second const means a constant pointer.
go is better

I love Lua. Everything is a table. Yes, even you. Everything. Is. A.Table.
so, what language should i learn as a beginner?
Most languages have many similarities, especially when you're just learning basic syntax and how applications run.
C has everything (and you can create anything it lacks), power everything, and is invaluable to learn eventually. But it doesn't need to be the first language, if its intimidating.
If you mostly care about becoming professional, learning C# is probably a good start.
Most languages have limitations or dogmas about them.
The limitations can be very big. E.g. Python is easily 100x slower than C, with literally the same code. And 10,000x slower is neither atypical. Spending a few days understanding the basics about CPU cache level latency, SIMD and instructions per cycle is very valuable to understanding what most modern developers don't (including those writing the modern languages).
As for dogmas, most of the industry believes in OOP and Clean Code™. It's like trying to make applications that work like your mental model of the world, ignoring the fundamentals. Which I think is unsustainable and will eventually collapse. If your application is hard for you to reason about, then your compiler and computer has even less chance of doing so (see Godbolt if you're ever in doubt).
Most languages are much more than their syntax, limitations and dogma though. They have entire ecosystems of pre-built modules that makes it easier to get started. But they come with a big hidden cost. You become dependent on them, they may lead you astray and often you'll eventually be fighting with them because they have limitations and aren't context-aware of your specific application. Virtually no module are the ideal generalized reusable solution that fits completely into your use-case. And when you're eventually tightly coupled to them, it's much harder to refactor them out.
Also, most of the developer pop-culture modules/frameworks are ephemeral and not based on fundamentals of the underlying hardware, so if you just learn what's trending, you risk either becoming obsolete in a few years or staying on a treadmill always trying to learn the next thing.
My biggest recommendation to anyone who doesn't want to waste time learning something that will become obsolete is to learn C - and Handmade Hero is a great resource for that. At least it was for me.
But I think many of the popular languages all have their uses. It's not all dogma. So in the end, I don't think it matters much what you pick. As long as you keep on challenging yourself, and try to keep your bs-o-meter intact. Because so much software today is so much harder to work with than it could be. There's a lot to do. And a lot of room for improvement. But it's a powerful industry. Computers are BLAZINGLY FAST today.
Java or C# as a higher level language when you just need to get shit done, and C or C++ as a lower level language to learn what your code is actually doing in higher level languages.
Cloudlfare's WAF is written in Lua btw
Is there something wrong with me, i hated C++ and i absolutely love java and C# and i really dont mind using PHP
3:25 Inb4 Google decides to axe Golang and you will be forced to rewrite everything in something else.
Just wanna hear Prime talk about Python for a full 30 minutes straight so I can get more perspective.
Where TF IS Ada ?????
You can't get JS module maintainers to work in TypeScript....
@24:55 “anyways, back to react” *reacting to op talking about react* 👏🏽 🌹
