When asked about a disliked programming language, this dev chose violence and went after English itself. Comparing our native tongue to a poorly designed programming language is painfully accurate. The semicolon usage is indeed arbitrary; we've got silent letters that contribute nothing; and try explaining "their/there/they're" to someone learning English without sounding like you're describing a bizarre legacy codebase. And don't get me started on the grammar police who act like linters with all warnings set to errors. No namespaces either—just ask anyone named John Smith about namespace collisions.
