Any decent modern general-purpose languages?

Assembly: Unportable. No standardised syntax.
Classical Visual Basic: Some good parts. Shit overall.
C: Shitty standard library. Deficient type system. Can't into Unicode. ``Unportable assembly.''
D and C++: Obfuscated boilerplate languages.
Java and C#: Forced OOP.
Common Lisp: Archaic cons-based library. Writing complex macros is a PitA due to the unlispy quotation syntaxes.
Scheme: CL without namespaces.
Clojure and Erlang: Concurrency is unneeded outside of a few very specific applications. Parallelism is where it's at.
OCaml: Great language, only one, deficient, implementation.
Haskell: Academic sex toy.
Forth: Reinventing the wheel over and over.
Ruby: Implicit declarations. Slow as fuck.
Python: Implicit declarations. FioC.
Perl: Brain damage.
PHP: Pretty much shit.
JavaScript: "" == false

It's impossible to list them all but, please, what decent modern general-purpose languages exist?

>The RISCs that have huge instructions that only do 1 thing will require more memory bandwidth to do superscalar/OOE, because by necessity they will need to fetch instructions faster. A 32-bit wide core-memory bus will either need to be widened to 64-bit or have its speed doubled. Not needed with x86: 32 bits is already enough to hold up to 4 instructions and they just need to change the core itself to execute them in parallel.
Are you seriously brain-dead enough to rehash arguments that have been dead for 20 years out of your ignorance? PROTIP, you moronic piece of shit, modern x86 can only function by breaking down the complex instructions to a reduced set for the hardware first.

It's really sad that in the time you spent showing the world how pathetically uneducated you were, you could have maybe read and learned something. Well, maybe a word or two of it with your displayed intellectual capacity so far.
