In the last 2 years Golang (or simply ‘Go’) has raised to the ranks of mainstream programming languages like Java, Python and C/C++. Did I miss the notice for "Compare some language to Java Day"?
In that case, I'll work on a post comparing Malbolge to Java (or that other odd language with the rude name)

Microsoft has today announced a new security service for Windows 10 enterprise users called “Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection” that aims to help detect, investigate and even respond to incoming cyber attacks on an enterprise network. It must be good - it hasn't been hacked yet

Functional languages will take your feelings and crush them.
Seriously, it'll leave you battered and bleeding and crying like a little baby.
