/prog/ - C and Lisp Language

Someone still uses these programming languages? My university is teaching us these useless primitive languages when they're supposed to teach us what's in the hype right now (Python, Ruby, Android, C#, C++, PHP, Java, D, etc etc). Shit sucks because I can't understand C but can program better languages like PHP.

I feel sorry for you. Try to put some heat in it. I've seen you more creative. I'll give you 1/10 if we were in 2007.

Thanks anon I felt really sorry for myself. How could I get a job for only knowing C language in my university. I think I need to change schools now.

C and LISP
Which university is that?

Nowadays they only teach shit like Java, C++...

Oh wait, you are trolling.
Move on.

Anon4 no I'm not. I'm just mad because I'm paying $$$$$$$$$$ and all I get are these languages that I can't even use in the future.

What's the name of your non-existing university in which you are not enrolled, OP?

Android is not a language.

All of the code monkey $20k-$30k year jobs are in Python, Ruby, Android, C#, PHP, Java, D, etc.

All of the six figure jobs are for C, C++, OpenCL/CUDA, Lisp, and assembly programmers, although you also usually need at least 8-10 years experience.

C
Yeah. Probably even more than they use any other language.

LISP
No, but Common Lisp and Scheme are commonly used.

This isn't a very good troll. I couldn't picture someone saying that in earnest, particularly because of this phrase:

to teach us what's in the hype right now

Nobody uses the word ``hype'' in a positive manner.

Try harder next time.

Also, check 'em.

Where? I have never heard about much less seen any actual program written in any lisp (except for Emacs which is elisp and that one game from a decade ago which used a heavily modified proprietary dialect of CL).

On a cursory glance at the popular downloads the only thing that is a real, somewhat useful application (and not a library for executing fibs and facs in parallel) seems to be this:

This is Usenet Legend, an application for producing a searchable archive of an author's comp.lang.lisp history from Ron Garrett's large archive dump.

Well, for a certain value of "useful", hhhehehe.
