Where should we look for the "Language Shootout"?
The link you provided doesn't point to anything called that.
- melling 14y agoGoogle it and see what you get. I typed "language shootout debian" to find the result. I guess Google still remembers its old name.
- igouy 14y agoYou are nearly 6 years out-of-date. (Google "Sun Java" and see what you get, really.)
- melling 14y agoSun was purchased by Oracle for $8 billion dollars. It was big news. The Language Shootout changing its name didn't register. It's simply not that important. I understand now that the name has been change, but in a year when I feel like Google'ing it again, I can promise how I'm going to search for it, or refer to it. On another note, your threads about the name change are adding little value to the conversation. Perhaps the time could be better spent? You are sort of wasting people's time. Next time, maybe simply say that the "Language Shootout" has been changed to the "Benchmark Game?"

- eridius 14y agoI think the name is the least important thing on the page. Why are you so fixated on it?
- igouy 14y agoIt's a simple glaring example of not seeing what actually is shown on the web pages. The other ways people don't see what actually is shown are more difficult -- taking memory use and code size measurements out-of-context.
