I find the circle jerk around programming languages to be kind of tired. I realise this is a deeply ironic statement. But, personally, once i realised the vast amount of the rest of the world that is out there and can be explored, intellectually and physically, going back to arguing about programming languages made me feel a bit sick.

I think this can't be applied to other niche interests. There's something uniquely tireless, insignificant, and wanky about programming language discourse that makes it especially sickening to me.
