I created the weirdest political compass

@ZILtoid1991 well, according to this, I'll learn Go.
What do you looking for in a programming language? Maybe I can suggest something better.

Curious how you decided what goes where, I'd hardly consider SQL a "Toy Lang" as opposed to a "System Lang"

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.

I’m sure everyone can suggest something better regardless of what they’re looking for in a programming language.

How are you defining "Obsolete" vs "Nu"?
e.g. Brainfuck from 1993 is all the way to Nu, while D (2001) and Rust (2012) are less "Nu"?

It wouldn’t be a good compass if nobody had strong issues with it:
- System vs Toy is not opposed to each other. Should have been system vs abstract or useful vs toy or whatever
- Where LISP? Best language missing makes graph bad
Edit: before people tell me there’s already ‘obsolete’ on the graph, no, there’s loads of obsolete languages that are still useful, and many more new languages that are either built for fun or not used for sad or good reasons.
Edit2: I’m also halfway sure that brainfuck is older than rust (but don’t wanna look it up). But if that’s true your axis mean several things at once anyway and you should feel bad (not really though).

The aim is to learn one fromeach quadrant!

I literally opened it looking for Lisp and dismissed the whole thing when I realized its not there

So, it's an almost useless dimension with misleading names? Yeah, it's a good "political compass".

I started using Go a few months ago, I'm loving it so far. Simple, gets the job done, stays out of your way.

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?

Also, what the hell is "nu" supposed to mean?

COBOL is about as far from a "toy" as I can imagine. Almost everything corpo runs on it at some level.

Is Java more obsolete than c#?

OP probably lived through the mid-1990s rise of “nu-metal” bands like Linkin Park

Except for the thousands of lines of boilerplate
