Go is like snakes: you're hatched from an egg and pretty much effective from the get-go. The older you get, the bigger prey you can eat, but otherwise things don't change much since you were hatched. Your species can thrive in almost any environment, you're effective, you have all the tools you need straight out of the egg.
Rust is like humans. There's a huge incubation period, and you're mostly helpless when you're born, but the older you get, the more effective you become with the tools nature graced you with. And you, like Thanos, are inevitable, even if it does mean the death of billions.
Python is like beaver. Everyone has an opinion about you: some think you're cute, some think you're wierd. You're perfectly suited to your environment, but things get awkward outside of your natural habitat - you can function, but not as well as when you're in your comfort zone. And when people encounter you where they're not expecting, they can be unpeasantly surprised, and you can cause them trouble.
C++ is like platypus. You resemble some other more simple, some might say sane, animal, but developed into a sort of frankenstein monster creature made from a jumble of parts and a stinger that, when it kills someone, comes as a shock. Every part of you serves some purpose, even if it seems tacked-on and out of place.
Then there's Node. You are everywhere. You are legion. You fill up ecosystems. People try to defend you, claiming that you serve some purpose in the foodchain, but there's scant evidence. Attempts to eradicate you fail. You often spread deadly disease. You breed, rapidly, persistently, relentlessly. You are widely hated, and yet everwhere.
Edit: typo
I would swap Python with C++. Constantly dealing with stupid runtime errors that couldβve been easily captured during compile time.
Did you forget to rename this one use of the variable at the end of the program? Sucks for you, because I wonβt tell you about it until after 30 minutes into the execution.
Use streams, or fmt. fprintf is for C. It's like people buying a cheap android phone, then going for an iPhone.
I don't blame you though, C++ carries a lot of baggage. Modern C++ is pretty nice, though, as is Rust.
And there's haskell compiler
A quick
-Werror=format -Werror=format-nonliteral -Werror=format-securitywill solve all yourprintfwoes.Why are you using fprintf in C++ anyway?
@stsquad
β Is my program about 1,000 lines complex?
β Yes, sure!
β Here you are my about 1,000 lines of 'printf("Hello, World\n");'.The meme will be completely different after writing a few lines of rust for a week πΉ
How does Python at all help? I don't understand
Cannot agree with compiler part of cpp. Linker errors on the other hand...
Dew it!
I see you're still wading through the high level morass.
as a non programmer, but someone involved in fields intimately similar in fundamental manners.
Honestly i get the feeling that languages and compilers are going to stop babying the user and go RISC-V at some point.
Who needs complex structures and tons of rules when you can just use a turing machine instead!
