also I just realized that Brazil did NOT make a programming language entirely in Spanish and call it “Si” and that my professor was making a joke about C… god damn it

this post is probably too nieche but I feel like Lemmy is nerdy enough that enough people will get it lol

      “The C programming language is like debating a philosopher and Python is like debating someone who ate an edible

      Here “edible” is a drug. it means Python is going in all and every directions like someone high on drugs.

        I get that part. I just don’t understand how the analogy relates to the programming languages. Maybe it really is just a shitty analogy from someone who doesn’t know much about either language.

      That’s because it’s a stupid take. Believing brazil named a programming language after a Spanish word is pretty embarrassing too but I guess English speakers do that constantly.
