“The Chinese Communist Party is trying to circumvent our export control system to support national security threats like Huawei - we cannot let it succeed,” This is just comedy.

There's no such thing as the perfect programming language, but there are languages that are plainly bad. For example: I don't think anyone would seriously defend the idea that brainfuck is a reasonable language to write production

Or even a more broad software development community that strives for fairness and well-thought guidelines instead of the current ones.

Imagine a programming language that gives you three different ways to add 2 numbers: 1 + 2; std::add(1, 2); std::int(1).add(std::int(2)); That's is not orthogonal at all, since we have 3 different ways to do the same thing for no disce

I haven't read it yet, but No Starch published "C++ crash course" a month ago, which teaches C++17 and looks appropriate for what you ask. https://nostarch.com/cppcrashcourse

> Imagine a country so hardcore capitalist, where one is expected to pay for parking at a private grocery store parking lot. That's perfect. People who don't use cars don't have to indirectly subsidize those who do.

Don't forget about everything being "visual". I learned just recently that Microsoft Visual Studio is completely different from Visual Studio Code.

On the other hand, Nvidia's Linux drivers are blobs (that don't even support Wayland) while AMD and Intel actively contribute to Mesa, and treat their users well (or at least much better than nvidia).

I didn't think this was about what the player said, but instead about Blizzard leveraging their influence to shut someone up. I think that'd be wrong even if the player had said something "bad". Now that I think about it

Nim's syntax is everything I hate in a language. It's not bad, objectively speaking, but its design opinions are the polar opposite of mine.

That's not Bitcoin's fault though. Otherwise, we could also argue that iPhones are a humanitarian disaster.

In general, I don't like software defaulting to convoluted "grandpa-friendly" behavior instead of the simple, no-bullshit behavior. Moreover, if you want the simple, sane behavior you're a weirdo and need to justify your
