Here we go again. Let's enumerate the technologies which are shit:
HTML is horrible
CSS is an abomination
HTTP is wasteful, slow and old
C++ is a horrible language (Linus Trovalds)
C is dangerous
Java sucks
..
I'll stop there and let you expand the list if you want.
Turns out the whole computing world is built on top of this terrible tech which many people hate, yet somehow it's moving forward.

Your hyperbole is actually the current state of affairs. Progress doesn't mean the things you're building on are good, just that they can be made to work. In fact, progress is the evolutionary process of throwing away some of the old stuff, calling it shit, and replacing it with the new hotness.
- talmand 13y agoAll I know after years of being in the tech industry, every programming language ever invented has pissed off enough people that no one should ever use each language. I'm quite sure that languages not yet invented has already pissed enough people already that they'll be hated the day they are released. Personally, I find such people childish in a way. It's a tool in a toolbox. I've never seen a mechanic rant about the substandard design of a standard screwdriver because he pulled it first despite actually needing a phillips screwdriver.
