said, that there were three kinds of computer languages: production, experimental, and 'the languages we are stuck with'. It said that there were only like 4 or 5 production languages: Java, C++/C#, something and Ruby, and it gave reasons for each. Unfortunately I forgot what that 'something' was, and the article, as is the fate of good things, is not online anymore. Then those 'languages we are stuck with' are otherwise languages used internally by certain programs, which we are forced to learn whether we want, or not. Those would be like bash, Lisp (emacs), Tcl/Tk and others. I intentionally omitted Perl and Python, as I am not sure which of the two categories decribed so far they belonged to. Then he went on about experimental languages, of the many he mentioned I can remember only
Haskell.
820:, but I just 'guessed'. If it was about Excel, I could 100% say that compared to Ruby, it is totally stable. But for Java, C++, I just guessed that it is much easier to learn them from a textbook published 5 years ago and still use the same code 5 years later. Or that online crowd has less to say about C and Java specs than about Ruby. Having admitted I just guessed, allow me to quatify, that I still believe that this guess would be right with more than 80% probability, discounted by how much you decide to trust me...

possibility that the page I started will raise a controversion. But again, that's the fate of all the new WP pages nowadays. Almost all the non-controversial WP entries have been created by now (except deep technicalities), so creating pages today is a matter of structuring the information. The reasons why I proceeded with the proposed page were not exactly community consensus. You seem to be willing to listen a bit, so I will explain a bit.

and I know how some people simply mentally surpass others by several levels. I think this programmer was the case. Never again I heard anyone talking so clearly and logically on tnis subject.

Some years ago, I found a web article about comparison programming languages. There are tons of such articles on the web. I was picking through them for more than a week, before I found the one that really rocked (well written and consistent). It was written by a pro Google developer and it basically

So somehow, that Google developer made me think that Ruby is a member of some "big 4" general purpose computer languages, which are not a waste of time to learn.
