ASM is much closer to true neutral. There are no high-level language rules/laws, no other man-made constructs on top of the silicon. We are speaking the language of machines, forever moving bytes between registers and addresses. Nothing more.
Edit: to be clear, the meme is great as-is. But I’m left wondering if this observation would also fit the format?
i already said i did not make this one
It’s all good man. If that came across as a sharp criticism of this work, I apologize. Usually, folks stir up debate on these things without any of it directed at the author. My text doesn’t convey this sentiment at all, so I left it open for interpretation. Rest assured, I got a good chuckle from this meme and simply want to express a personal opinion on what I would have done differently (had I not been too lazy to make a meme myself). I’ll go clean up my comment to help make all this clear to others. Thanks for understanding.
no problem, tbh if it wrere me to write it id also have put asm as true newutral. i actually did asm a few times. sadly only know mips (lol)
Some of those color choices were chaotic evil too
i didnt make the template
At no point should C++ be considered “lawful” or “good”. Haskell would be the best.
Haskell would be the best.
lisp wants some words with you about that
I wouldn’t call lisp “lawful”.
C++, lawful good
tbh i didnt even make this meme, it was my dad, i just posted it here
Hi ops Dad
That seems like a great dad
Someday the concepts will come and fix all of this. It has been foretold.
Concepts are already here - (as of now) they fix a subset of this, and errors messages can still be extremely long.
They’re less like “here’s every single template parameter of the involved types” and more like “this template thingy has many specializations with different constraints, here’s a list of all of them and why none of them are satisfied with your parameters”
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…
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.
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.
F tier meme.
“Haha JavaScript sucks’” is the easiest way to spot someone who spends more time on programming subreddits then they do programming.
Well, JS does suck. It doesn’t matter how much time I spend programming, this truth will stand
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.
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.
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.)
It’s in the title
Stop comparing programming languages
Python is VERSATILE
JavaScript is POWERFUL
Ruby is ELEGANT
C is ESSENTIAL
C++
Java is ROBUST
Out of all the programming languages, C++ is definitely one of them.
C++ is chaotic goodl, C is lawful good in my opinion
Python should be one of the chaotics.
You can even dynamically create global variables in there.Most overrated language imho.
I would have put assembly as true neutral
C++ good? Shiggity diggity
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
Where is lisp?
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.
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.
The literal entirety of Facebook / Instagram / Whatsapp’s backend is built on PHP.
I’m not saying that was a good choice, but it does guarantee a lot of resources flowing to it’s development.
Whats DIS?
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.
tldr: malbolge wimpmode
