    Stop comparing programming languages

    Python is VERSATILE

    JavaScript is POWERFUL

    Ruby is ELEGANT

    C is ESSENTIAL

    C++

    Java is ROBUST

    Out of all the programming languages, C++ is definitely one of them.

    I would have put Perl as lawful evil, Brainfuck as Chaotic Evil and maybe ASM should have been Neutral Evil

      I feel like malbolge is a much better fit for chaotic evil than brain fuck is but I agree with the rest

    I haven’t used PHP in a while (10+years) but I didn’t think it was that frustrating as its reputation seems to imply today. I remember their docs all had examples and I found that pretty useful.

      The literal entirety of Facebook / Instagram / Whatsapp’s backend is built on PHP.

      I’m not saying that was a good choice, but it does guarantee a lot of resources flowing to it’s development.

      For what I remember, it was just a normal interpreted language but you had to put “$” everywhere.

      It can be pretty frustrating when dealing with old code bases. However its introducing a lot of really great features, so if you’ve got the time to either start a new project or rewrite with the more modern features you’ll be fine.

        Concepts are already here - (as of now) they fix a subset of this, and errors messages can still be extremely long.
        They’re less like “here’s every single template parameter of the involved types” and more like “this template thingy has many specializations with different constraints, here’s a list of all of them and why none of them are satisfied with your parameters”

          Or have variables inside a loop hoisted up in the function. Fun when you capture them with lambdas.

    No way Bash is lawful, or Malbolge is chaotic… And no way C++ is lawful either.

    Did you just throw the languages around at random? At least Perl fell on the right place…

      ADA should be the lawful good.

      Bash is chaotic neutral.

      Java is lawful neutral.

      Javascript fits ok as chaotic evil.

      Move ASM to neutral evil.

      And maybe f77 as lawful evil.

      Right? I do like Shell but scripts over 200 loc get quickly confusing, no matter how well you organize them. Not to start with Batch, they get confusing at 10 loc.

      It appears to be Dis thing right here.

      Apparently it’s a nerfed variant of Malbolge. Malbolge is literally cryptographically difficult to program in, while Dis is merely migraine-inducing.

    At no point should C++ be considered “lawful” or “good”. Haskell would be the best.
