- jjnoakes 5y agoPerhaps, but crappy Java and crappy Go won't have memory corruption concerns, which is a huge plus in and of itself.
- pjmlp 5y agoIndeed, unfortunately they get to play with sharp knives.
- still_grokking 5y agoWell, 50% of programmers are at most mediocre—or worse. And only maybe 1% of programmers is able to write significantly better code than all others. So in result, just by the means of statistics, all code is necessarily crap. (Besides the extremely seldom pearls written by some independent geniuses). Frankly this is unavoidable on an industrial scale of production, I guess. At least as long as we can't clone "10 x programmers".
