Comment on Why are so many new programming languages being developed?
schmorpel@slrpnk.net 5 days agoAh, I like this comparison - something I can relate to. I mostly listen to either European Pre-Renaissance or world music/folk jazz these days. What would that be in programming languages?

It’s probably C that’s closest in the programming language world. It’s old, stood the test of time and is still popular.

C, in some ways, is probably like a Xylophone because I always “get assembly” when I think it, and I know bits are the drum line and the CPU is the drummer.
