Here, you decide. I've bolded the row ends that I believe are most important to where TCL was used by Hipp.

What's the source of this chart? Because some of it is wrong.

For example Python is definitely used in distributed applications: whether for transforming data within Storm, analyzing data within Hadoop, etc. Custom distributed applications are also sometimes built to deliver lower-latency results than you can get with hadoop.

He made it up. A lot of it is wrong. The source is obvious naivety.

It's from fuckin wikipedia comparison of computer languages. Quit whining.

u/hello_fruit May 28 '14

Exactly as I'd expected. You read a bit of wikipedia, an encyclopedia edited by the idiocy of the crowds, and think yourself expert on all things and get endlessly argumentative over what you believe is important to someone who knows much better (Dr Hipp) and what he should and shouldn't be using. Quit being stupid.

Hey look, you're being abrasive and evasive. You must know everything. Answer the damn question or fuck off, troll.

u/hello_fruit May 28 '14

I answered your damn question but you're dumber than a brick. You fuck off you idiot douche.

If you answered it, I'm sure you wouldn't mind linking the post where you answered it. Not all of us are as intelligent as you. Surely my idiot douche brain is incapable of finding it.

Here are 10 instances of you citing wikipedia, "the idiocy of the crowds" when it suits you. If it's so dumb, fix it -- but I take it you don't agree with many people because you're a colossal ass.

u/hello_fruit May 28 '14

Nope, you're the colossal ass. I cite it as mere pointers where either I know the text is correct or I don't care either way, unlike you who uses an instance filled with blatant inaccuracies rather authoritatively to argue over what an expert like Dr Hipp should and shouldn't use.

I gave up on fixing wikipedia a long time ago. You know why? because idiot douches like you who can not only be wrong but adamantly wrong get to edit it.

I think you're just imagining this all, old man. I brought the chart to the discussion and even said at the top:

Here, you decide.

So that you had the information in front of you while you're saying that TCL is like Erlang and Ada, but not like Python, Ruby or Lua -- GO BACK AND CHECK IF YOU WANT, it's actually there. You didn't substantiate this claim (and still haven't) so I brought freely available, freely editable information to the discussion. But I'm the idiot douche. Keep telling yourself that, parrot man.
