Delphi?

[stickman373]

Anyone have an interest of having a place to discuss delphi releated programming?

[filburt1]

Been discussed and rejected. And get your Pascal-derived filth out of my sight.

Maybe John should re-brand the site...Programming World

Yeah, how many people program in just one language? That would be a little boring.

[sail3005]

i feel sorry for anyone that has only programmed in VB.

[filburt1]

I feel sorry for anyone who thinks the VB language is incredible. All I really love is the GUI aspect.

[sail3005]

yeah, any time you hear basic after a language you know it can't be that good.

[filburt1]

At least I know that it is an acronym for Beginner's All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code.

[sail3005]

i learned basic first, when i was a beginner, and then moved on...some people just never move on.

Well, ANYTHING is better than Pascal.

[JoshT]

Nah, COBOL's the worst language. And VB is a lot more powerful than people want to give it credit for.

[JoshT]

I say COBOL's the worst language because I didn't like it. I was required to take a COBOL course when I was in college, and while it was easy enough to program with, I found it excessively verbose and cumbersome.

There's supposedly a shortage of younger people who want to work with it, but I think that means when the older programmers start to retire, there's gonna be big money for people who are still fluent in it.
