Some of those color choices were chaotic evil too

[-] dosuser123456@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 3 weeks ago

i didnt make the template

[-] sudo@programming.dev 54 points 3 weeks ago

At no point should C++ be considered "lawful" or "good". Haskell would be the best.

[-] rtxn@lemmy.world 25 points 3 weeks ago

Haskell is where hope and sanity go to die.

[-] sudo@programming.dev 5 points 3 weeks ago

That's when you have to comply with decades of backwards compatibility.

[-] dosuser123456@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 3 weeks ago

Haskell would be the best.

lisp wants some words with you about that

[-] sudo@programming.dev 6 points 3 weeks ago

I wouldn't call lisp "lawful".

Template-C++ is not C++ after all /s

[-] mkwt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Someday the concepts will come and fix all of this. It has been foretold.

That I'll call chaotic evil

No way Bash is lawful, or Malbolge is chaotic... And no way C++ is lawful either.

Did you just throw the languages around at random? At least Perl fell on the right place...

[-] backgroundcow@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

ADA should be the lawful good.

Bash is chaotic neutral.

Java is lawful neutral.

Javascript fits ok as chaotic evil.

Move ASM to neutral evil.

And maybe f77 as lawful evil.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 weeks ago

Right? I do like Shell but scripts over 200 loc get quickly confusing, no matter how well you organize them. Not to start with Batch, they get confusing at 10 loc.

[-] masterspace@lemmy.ca 22 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

F tier meme.

"Haha JavaScript sucks'" is the easiest way to spot someone who spends more time on programming subreddits then they do programming.

[-] Shanmugha@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Well, JS does suck. It doesn't matter how much time I spend programming, this truth will stand

[-] SatouKazuma@programming.dev 9 points 2 weeks ago

JS is just insane. Learning it took far more of my time than any other language, and honestly, I'm tempted to say it's not even a single language because of all the frameworks and non-standard libraries.

[-] masterspace@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago

I'm tempted to say it's not even a single language because of all the frameworks and non-standard libraries.

Or you know, you could be tempted to say it has multiple frameworks you can choose from.

One is more accurate than the other, but if languages are only allowed to have a single framework in your mind, then do you.

[-] Quik@infosec.pub 4 points 2 weeks ago

This but with PHP, kinda. It isn't my favorite language/really good, and at some point in time it deserved the hate, but it has come a long way.

[-] uuldika@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago

JS isn't even on here though. and whoever made this meme knew enough to include two Esolangs (though I'm insulted they included nary a single 'funge.)

Python should be one of the chaotics.
You can even dynamically create global variables in there.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Or stick a new variable onto the instance of a class 🤯

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

or return values for properties that don't exist, and only get created on access!

I love python.

I would have put assembly as true neutral

[-] twice_hatch@midwest.social 10 points 2 weeks ago

C++ good? Shiggity diggity

[-] trolololol@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Tell me op never did c++ without telling me op never did c++

PHP has got a lot of new features in the language that makes it a little bit like c# now, so it's not that bad anymore :P

I haven't used PHP in a while (10+years) but I didn't think it was that frustrating as its reputation seems to imply today. I remember their docs all had examples and I found that pretty useful.

[-] Matty_r@programming.dev 2 points 2 weeks ago

It can be pretty frustrating when dealing with old code bases. However its introducing a lot of really great features, so if you've got the time to either start a new project or rewrite with the more modern features you'll be fine.

Where is lisp?

[-] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 7 points 2 weeks ago

PHP has weird decisions but in the end it's a good back end

[-] Kissaki@programming.dev 5 points 2 weeks ago

I think the front and back end of PHP are pretty similar. They are both the same letter P after all.

I would have put Perl as lawful evil, Brainfuck as Chaotic Evil and maybe ASM should have been Neutral Evil

[-] Scoopta@programming.dev 3 points 2 weeks ago

I feel like malbolge is a much better fit for chaotic evil than brain fuck is but I agree with the rest

[-] uuldika@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 weeks ago

It appears to be Dis thing right here.

Apparently it's a nerfed variant of Malbolge. Malbolge is literally cryptographically difficult to program in, while Dis is merely migraine-inducing.

Given how python tries to be as readable as possible with its controversial stance on using indentation, is it really neutral?

Idk if moral alignment makes sense for languages, at least not as much as weapon metaphors.

[-] BorgDrone@lemmy.one 3 points 2 weeks ago

The lack of braces in python code makes it quite difficult to read for someone who’s used to languages that use braces.

[-] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

I agree, I was very careful to say tries to ಠᴗಠ

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 weeks ago

Replace maybe C++ with Haskell.

Vb.net us fun. It's like c# but with alternate words.

[-] dosuser123456@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 3 weeks ago

i still hate both and all of .net framework yeah, even vscode

[-] masterspace@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

VSCode was literally the IDE Microsoft created for working on everything but .NET framework, and it is built on Electron, it has nothing to do with .NET.
