This is how I feel about Python and Pycharm. .NET feels antiquated to me and the culture of the language (lots of former MBA guys who learned visual basic in excel as a first language) doesn't have the same spirit as Python, Ruby, or Go (or C, C++, or assembly for that matter) but to each his own.
- recursive 11y agoSo the reason .net feels antiquated is purely a function of the other people who use it. That sounds like something a Ruby programmer would say. ;)
- cmdrfred 11y agoIt's mainly what its used for, if you want to make pretty graphs and keep track of materials at your factory maybe you pull out .net if you want to do something interesting you use pretty much anything else. I know tons of people make a living with it, but I don't understand the passion for the language.
- recursive 11y agoIt's a programming language that expresses logic. The interesting-ness of the domain is not related. You can solve any kind of interesting or uninteresting problem in any non-trivial language.
- itsybitsycoder 11y agoNearly all Unity games are made entirely with C#. (There is a proprietary UnityScript you can use, but AFAIK nobody uses it.) Not all C# is .NET...
- jimmaswell 11y agoWhat does any of that have to do with it as a programming language?
- rossng 11y agoI think it very much depends on which companies you look at. There's lots of boring stuff done in .NET, but there's also some amazing stuff. The next few months are pretty exciting - I mean, just watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip6wrpYFHhE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip6wrpYFHhE
