You're joking right?
- lief79 1y agoThat was an active debate ... 15 years ago
- kamaal 1y agoIf you look at programming language list- Apart from Python, Java. Most are targeted to specific platforms(databases, browsers, embedded systems) or tech(SQL for database). The general purpose programming languages today are still- Python, Java, and Perl. Make whatever of this you will. Larry Wall at one point said, if you make something very specific to a use case(like awk, sed, php etc), it sort of naturally starts to come out of general purpose use. Its just that Kotlin, Rust, Go, SQL, Julia, SQL, Javascript etc. These are not general purpose programming languages.
