why would you use java though, its way worse than python (or ruby, from my limited experience). THey are more powerful and easier to use.

the best language is lisp and the only people who don't think so are those too dumb to understand lisp. c is also good b/c you can write lisp interpreters in it.

im sure lisp was all very well in the past but in the modern world we can have the best of both worlds. first-class functions and clean, logical syntax (c syntax). javascript is the answer, its what you always wanted from lisp but knew it was lacking, embrace it.

right because nobody has made anything in python or ruby oh wait no there's tons of poo poo in python. and probably ruby I guess. And each of them have a package manager that comes with them too so its easy to add libs. I went back to java for a thing recently and was surprised by how much extra work I had to do, I was too used to python where poo poo is way easier.

i'm going to college to learn how to program bideo games (video games). i learned c in the fall and just finished my first c++ class. next semester I take another c++ class, a operating systems class (stuff like multi-threading), and a graphics class. i never have to learn java :hellyeah:

sounds like a great career move bro

JavaScript is pretty amazing cause you can use one language for both client side and server side. No more learning a dozen languages to make your web app. One is all you need.

also, if anyone's curious, here is a list of the real (ie non-syntactic) differences between python and ruby:
  • in ruby you can monkeypatch builtin types
  • python has real multiple inheritance
  • python raises an exception when you access an attribute that doesn't exist, ruby returns nil

python you can monkey patch built-in types using ctypes
python has immutable strings
python uses iterators for collection operations, ruby uses observes (blocks)
ruby uses smalltalk style oo (message passing), python uses simula style oo (attribute lookup)

lol no. java is like 10000x easier. maven is the best build/dependency management tool there is.

yeah but java and ruby and python all suck for that because you have to screw around with dependency management in the first place. in php all you have to do is include what you need

lisp syntax is as clean and logical (other than maybe only having prefix operators and Lots of Insidiously Silly Parentheses) as you can get because there's very little of it.
