Everything sucks

Name: Anonymous 2014-01-25 18:34

In this thread: post a one-line dismissal of the library/language/program/etc. the last person posted, then post a library/language/program/etc. of your own to be dismissed. Try to be specific (but not necessarily accurate) with your dismissals, i.e. ``GTK'' -> ``Deprecated directfb output for no reason'' or ``Perl'' -> ``Write-only''.

And if somebody slams your favorite, don't take one sentence as a serious argument.

I'll start with a classic:

Python

Python
Uesless, overly complex, fundamentally slow language marketed towards novices and used by retards who read XKCD and call themselves nerds.

FIOC would be letting it off too easy

Java

Too many AbstractSingletonProxyFactoryBean s.

Unnecessary over-encapsulation to make it really OO.

No thanks, I don't like Mexican food.

Dijkstra's Algorithm

Dijkstra's ``goto considered harmful'' has blinded people to the utility of goto in certain use cases.

Absolutely trivial algorithm, even a child could invent it.

Google retards give the task of creating a new language to the same old unix dinosaurs. They come up with C but change the name. Same shit, different smell.

Design patterns

Name: Anonymous 2014-01-25 22:20

``Design patterns'' means ``my language is too shitty to let me abstract and factor out this common pattern in my code.''

I'm too faggot to write my own DSL

Obviously inferior to HTTP because everyone uses HTTP and only hipsters use Gopher.

Why would you use FVWM when FVWM2 exists?

bzip2

Deprecated.

GCC

Clang has been in development for a small fraction of the time compared to GCC and it's already near GCC's benchmark. Once people switch over, GNU will be dead.

I didn't understand Smalltalk, but I wanted to create a object oriented language with C syntax. Thanks God Apple saved me before I was destroyed by my own father.

Fortran

Well, being able to shade windows is useful. As is being able to use the mouse to perform geometric operations (scaling, rotation, translation). Configurable contextual key and mouse bindings are important. Decorations should be large, and be easy to hit with the mouse (mwm and 4dwm (and Windows 3.1!) got this right: its very easy to grab borders, and window corners have extra affordances). Undo features are very very very welcome. It should be programmable at run time (very important). Windows should be minimized to icons on the desktop, preferrably with a specifiable arrangement strategy (corresponding to window maximization strategies). Tabbed windows can be useful. Clicking on the desktop should open a launcher menu.

I use Sawfish, which is O.K. Does not meet all of my criteria but it's very good.

After half a month, nobody appears to have found a reason why Fortran sucks. I'll therefore have to conclude that Fortran is the only thing that doesn't suck.
Don't change these.
