Python is rather the clown. As it is more Scratch than a programming language
Someone tried to learn python and failed.
One of us has spent the last three months trying to help their client untangle their massive python monolith that makes all their in house engineers quit.
Python is a good language for writing a data processing script, not for building a large piece of software.
It sounds like the issue was devs creating a crappy monolith, not the language itself.
We all know C# is the real clown.
ah yes programming languages are jokes themselves, and not the programmers using the wrong tools for the wrong job
Come on, Javascript is pretty nasty. Trying to read that shit always gives me brain tumors. Why do they need to wrap every fucking thing in a function inside a function inside a function that is passed as a parameter to a function inside another function?
Like, bro, you know people are meant to understand what you just wrote?
It just gives too much freedom and people forget they need to write code that is easy to read for people who aren't totally familiar with the code base.
They even bring that shit into typescript. Like they are already using a language that is meant to fix that shit and they are like, nope, let me create 5 nested functions just because.
Can you give an example of the multi nested functions? I was a TS dev for a while and don't remember anything like that. Unless you mean the promise callback functions. Those were a mess but luckily we've mostly moved away from those
People creating functions as objects inside of other functions. A few days ago saw a person create a function with two object functions inside, then passed one of the functions as an argument to the other function. Then returned the second function.
It's hard to find such a mess in other languages. Yeha, functions as objects are cool. Closures are also cool... But why abuse that shit?
Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
