I'm surprised at the list. Rust is fundamentally immature, C++ is fundamentally intractable, Python is fundamentally unusable at scale, and Hack is, well, no discussion needed. Strong negative signal for potential candidates.
Pure python maybe, but the popular packages for these applications are all essentially python wrappers for highly optimized compiled code.
I'm curious though, what language(s) do you believe belong on that list?
But Meta is in the advertising business and Google is a competitor.
Because it's a list of opinions on languages. No specifics provided, and stated in a way that appears to be trolling (deliberate or accidental on the author's part). Comments like that are a dime a dozen in programming language threads and add nothing to the overall conversation.
Whereas the OP simply reeled off a list of half-baked subjective opinions.
It’s bad no matter what single language you’re promoting.
half-assed gestures to lazy forum-warrior tropes, would be a more accurate description.
> Rust is immature
I recuse myself due to fanboyism.
> C++ is intractable
Except to all the firms and people successfully using it.
> Python is fundamentally unusable at scale
Except to all the firms and people successfully using it.
No true fanboy would ever say that ;)
