I created the weirdest political compass
-
That it's an interpreted language rather than a compiled one. Bytecode and interpreted langs get the Toy Lang treatment. At least SQL has floating points.
Javascript is compiled, just in time.

Among this chart's many other issues raised elsewhere, Ada is in totally the wrong place. Probably more system than Rust right now, and definitely not obsolete.

And almost no one writes it for fun.

a lot of suspicuously missing lisps
wrote last edited by [email protected]A systems language, one of the oldest but still in use and modeled after, used to build expensive research toys, which compiles itself via its interpreter…. is in some 4d space this plane doesn't slice through.
FORTH also out in space somewhere

Yeah, the axes on this are weird, why would the opposite of a systems language be a toy language? And why is Lua, a very popular and commonly used language in tons of stuff, a "toy"? And Lua is a nu Lang? It's older than Java, maybe it just feels newer because each release isn't necessarily backwards compatible?
OP is a “C guy”

Where's Latin and Summerian?

Did you just note Typescript, a superset of JavaScript that needs to be compiled into it, as closer to the system?
Also does it technically constitute a language? That feels like a stretch too.

As a Ruby fan having a blast with Elixir, where the hell is anything BEAM related?
The compass is truly political.

Assembly being obsolete has to be the funniest joke in here. It fundamentally never will be even if its use is niche
...and C++ being obsolete is the second funniest.

Are those programming languages?

They could have been.

Did the same with D's superset, betterC.

It's missing another axis, where else is Scott Lang gonna fit?

I like it

Also, what the hell is "nu" supposed to mean?
Funny that nushell is not on here.

I literally opened it looking for Lisp and dismissed the whole thing when I realized its not there
wrote last edited by [email protected]Haskell's also not there. I was ready to criticize any quadrant it was put in heh. But that's probably mostly because the axes are kinda bad.

I'm not sure "computer" was even a profession back at that time.

That's... a really dumb definition. And why is C# right in the middle but Java's towards obsolete and toy lang? They both compile to byte code and are overall extremely similar.
