The prime directive in programming is to write correct code. Some programming languages make it easy to achieve this objective. We can qualify these languages as ‘safe’. "Is it safe?"

I get that reference. Horrifying scene.

Doctor Doom[^] did the same thing.
Not that there are any obvious parallels, or anything.
I'm sure that they didn't do the project to test out spying equipment, or anything.

I made a little flow chart of mainstream programming languages and how programmers seem to move from one to another. Can we get David Attenborough to narrate?

More like a chart on his fantasy of The Best Languages.
(The only Delphi programmers I know--all two of them--moved to C++. Of the developers I know using C#, who started with another language, all but one came from C or C++ (that one came from Java, but moved to Java from C++.))

Yesterday, the team at Go announced the results of their user survey for the year 2018. 5,883 users from 103 different countries participated in the survey. Because I was so impressed with the conclusions drawn in that headline
According to Go developers, developer use Go a lot. The VB6 developers need to replicate this study.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I think that's the daftest headline to make it onto these hallowed pages for quite a while (and that's a fair old achievement). Go Users in Using Go Shocker!

There has got to be an easier way!
Oh.
Yeah.
There are several.
