That answer means you must have misunderstood what I said. Anyway, I was mostly looking for an explanation of what is so great about Weebly because I didn't get it. Surely we must be able to critisize here right?

Not to be negative but they have existed for 3 years and that is all they have produced? Maybe I missed something when I tried it a couple of months ago but it seemed more like something that had been around for 3 weeks. I really wanted som

I think we turned what was an innocent and perhaps true remark to a certain degree(people like to namedrop it) into a quarrel here. I'm not saying that computer science is all day P vs NP philosophy. I'm just saying that you have to know co

Though after reading the paper it seems like gibberish. Weird prank though since it seems fairly elaborate.

If you don't undertand complexity and algorithms you will likely run in t huge performance problems at some point and that will make your whole program useless. No matter the type of programming complexity and algorithms is involved. So it

P vs NP is a pretty real problem, complexity theory is superimportant. People how can't do proper Big-O-analysis are forever doomed to suck at programming.

Well I don't know it very well, that's partly why I'm wondering. But it is not very expressive. Is it not possible for example to have higher order functions in a low-level language? The type-system could be made safer(learn from Haskell).

I'd wish people stop post all crappy blogposts about shallow language-comparisons. Saying language X does Y in 4 lines instead of language Zs 5 lines just doesn't say much unless you put it in a bigger perspective. (And I like Python very m
