[05-10 22:46][Chat]Icewolfz: fortran is tsill around but i think only in certain places
[05-10 22:46][Chat]Icewolfz: rust is the current up and comer
[05-10 22:46][Chat]Icewolfz: provides the speed of c++ with most if not all the safty check sof other langs
[05-10 22:47][Chat]Left: fortran is around because memory can not be co-opted by other code in the program no matter what.
[05-10 22:47][Chat]Icewolfz: granted rust can be a pia to use
[05-10 22:47][Chat]Icewolfz: so many <blah<bkag<blah>>> nested crap
[05-10 22:47][Chat]Icewolfz: that and rust lacks agood gui kit still
[05-10 22:47][Chat]Icewolfz looks into it but has yet to see a good gui platofrm
[05-10 22:48][Chat]Left: well any strongly typed language sucks to program in, hell i hate c++ vs c vs k&r c for those reasons. I'm also not a professional programmer because the last language that made sense to me was k&r C
[05-10 22:48][Chat]Icewolfz: i dont mine strict to much
[05-10 22:48][Chat]Icewolfz: tehre constantly new langs nowdays
[05-10 22:49][Chat]Icewolfz: and langs on top of langs
[05-10 22:49][Chat]Icewolfz: like escription that converts c++ into wasm to run in js
[05-10 22:49][Chat]Left: pascal is a C and basic variant that doesn't allow things like typedef to use a 32 bit var as a bool when its convenient.
[05-10 22:49][Chat]Icewolfz: i havnt heard much about pascal being used anywhere
[05-10 22:49][Chat]Left: I've looked into Rust and its even worse about that. :)
[05-10 22:50][Chat]Icewolfz: rust tries ot limit memory changes for securty
[05-10 22:50][Chat]Left: if you want to use math bool against a string array you are 100% f***ed using Rust. :)
[05-10 22:50][Chat]Icewolfz: and prevent buffer overflows which are like 80% of te bugs in most apps nowdays
[05-10 22:50][Chat]Icewolfz: probably cna just conver types pretty easy i fi rmember
