[LadyKillmonger]

bushpig programming code is the way of the future

[jon]

probably java

[timmy]

probably java

for self learning would you recommend C++ first or just straight up java?

java is the best thing to learn for all general purposes but it is not what you are likely to be using in the highest paid jobs

java is the most widely used language for introductory computer science classes

java is the most widely used language in commercial software

java and C are the two top languages for embedded systems and automation

C is the single most important language ever, and that is unlikely to change

LISP is the once and future king of languages; it's the language that computers deserve, but not the one they need right now

objective-C has a niche market: apple iphones

C++ is dead, lol, why did you even mention C++

it's ++ so it must be the same but better right

wrong

Jon is a shitty developer

stzrt with javascript first and then learn c++, it's prob worth learning html5 now too

[Autistic Spectrum]

prototype,,,, fucking mess

[Autistic Spectrum]

i think tim should pick a project he wants to make and pick the right lang to make it, unless he wants to stand around in wallygong saying hello world the rest of his life, HE NEEDS TO DIVE RIGHT IN

[Autistic Spectrum]

u want a niche lang that nobody uses to make the big bucks java programmers are literally a dime a dozen, since they teach it in the 9th grade now

there is so much legacy scripting shgit that uses microsoft office things for output that i work on where i have to use visual basic

[Autistic Spectrum]

tim learn cobal and fix traffic lights, and really old systems u will be a millonare

[Autistic Spectrum]

become a cobal master

become a cobal master

pakis did that for y2k

[Autistic Spectrum]

i have a couple as400's u can play with em if u want i don't care tim, just be a cobal GOD,

[Autistic Spectrum]

ya java runtime lol thats not destined for the garbage can, oracle is doing a bang up job

[Autistic Spectrum]

learn a dot syntax lang and how to read documentation this is not tim.this.is.not.that.hard stack overflow will help u more than monde ok

[Autistic Spectrum]

cobal guys make big bucks, lol, cause nobody knows wtf

[juji]

probably java

No fuck Java

[Autistic Spectrum]

lol don't start with c++ and don't start with java either if you want to learn, make an iphone app or something

Hel lo

[Autistic Spectrum]

and never listen to cameron unless you want to learn how to pull a dent out on your honda accord,

[timmy]

check your privilege

java is the only language that has room to grow

e.g. while C is not popular, this is not because it is a bad language, it is because the design of other languages better suits more applications than the kinds that C is suitable for

in other words, C has the greatest coverage in its market, perhaps 99% of market share. there are a number of places where truly ancient code has not been updated to C yet, and there are a number of places where libc has not been fully implemented yet. platform support is either lacking, or provides its own incompatible runtime, built in the assembly language for the host architecture

but in markets where java could have been used, java is not an undisputed king, because programmers are free to "play favorites" and do things with, in order of popularity, another language: PHP, python, C#, C

even so, overall, java is twice as popular as PHP, PHP is twice as popular as python, python is twice as popular as C#

[jon]

C# is java-like, and not all that bad, but being tethered to microsoft's .net framework it is destined for obsolescence

java can and will innovate wider and better and do it without losing cross-platform support, it is already stable on every major architecture that we will ever build personal computing devices with

JDK 8 will be bringing in all the features that C# now has, and they are so esoteric (e.g. true lambda functions and closures) that nobody even cares that C# had them first
