Pain & Anger
: "All you web developers are a bunch of spoiled, entitled twats who’ve never solved a real engineering problem in your entire lives. I can't understand why you make everything so complicated, you are just converting database rows into html"

#1
Go
: "No, Go will never support this, as it doesn't make sense. There's no way to know what the value should be without providing it."

Rust
: "In a weird turn of events, this change to the C standard came about because Rust developers kept nagging me about the mismatch between LLVM and C semantics."

Linux
: "But what stops Linux from succeeding is - Linux. Any time the desktop shows a glimmer of success, the nerds get scared, afraid they will lose their hallowed underdog status, and subconsciously make everything worse again, perpetuating the dependency and the cool-nerd club status."

Programming Languages
: "I think the hunt for theoretical beauty often starts with Haskell, Agda, Prolog, maths, NixOS, declarative statements and abolishing systemd, but ends with Arch Linux, a simple DE like Xfce4, embracing/ignoring systemd, using PostgreSQL and a practical programming language like Lua, Go, C# or Odin."

Python
: "Well, big fan of uv.
But... the 86GB Python dependency download cache on my primary SSD, most of which can be attributed to the 50 different versions of torch, is testament to the fact that even uv cannot salvage the mess that is pip."

Javascript
: "Bash is great, but when it comes to writing more complex scripts, many people prefer a more convenient programming language. Javascript is a perfect choice"

C
: "That people are still writing lots of new C Code in the Linux kernel, that we all rely on, is a huge sCandal."

C++
: "I just don't understand why some people are so fascinated by this. Can you all admit that this is not at all practical? I swear C++ folks like it for the sake of it."

Java
: "My argument is simple: Java worked so well because it hit the 80/20 point; for my money one of the loudest, cleanest 80/20 technology victories ever. Subsequent attempts to fill in the 20% were, well, mostly harmless. Until generics, which are a disaster."
