If it's C or C++, it's crap!

We don't live in the 1980s anymore. If you want to get things done, forget about languages like C and C++. C is too basic to get anything done quickly, and C++ is too complex to remember.

Python, Perl, Lisp, Haskell, Prolog, et al, are superior. Leave C and C++ to the vidya gaem programmers. They don't know shit anyway.

For example, SBCL compiled code compares quite nicely to C compiled code performance-wise. Combine that with the productivity increase and you will see that C and C++ are inferior.
