I always thought that there is no such thing as best programming language in the world. After all they only recycle the same recipe , again and again. Then I found out Smalltalk and realized how wrong I was.
There is nothing that comes close that can compete with the massive success that Smalltalk has been. Its blows my mind how it can be so much better than anything else out there including the usual suspects (Lisp, haskell, blah blah).
But in the end its not about the language , its about the libraries. Hence why Python remains my No1 choice.
In the end however even Smalltalk is terrible outdated. The state of software is in abysmal condition trapped in its own futile efforts of maintaining backward compatibility, KISS and do not reinvent the wheel.
In sort software is doing its best to keep innovation at a minimum and as such pretty much everything sucks big time and is still stuck in stone age.
I once considered becoming a professional coder working in a company doing the usual thing, I am glad I was wise enough not to choose that path. I would have killed myself right now with all this nonsense that makes zero logical sense.
But my hope is in AI, the sooner we get rid of coders, the better. Fingers crossed that is sooner than later. Bring on our robotic overlords.
Saying that I know a lot of people that really love coding and respect it as an art and science, so there is definitely hope.
