What are the most polarizing programming languages?

There are many ways to measure the popularity of a language. But this dataset is a rare way to find out what technologies people tend to dislike, when given the opportunity to talk about them.

I'm happy to see that SourceSafe is still highly hated.
I'd rather be phishing!

That first graph is illuminating. I guess I have to embrace the fact that I am rather contrarian. I love .NET and C#, can't stand Git (but use it), and I rather loathe duck-typed and dynamic runtime typed language. No wonder I find it hard to find people that think like me. :sigh: And to think, I'll probably be coding for a living for at least another 15 years. :sigh: :sigh: [edit]On the other hand, the data may be skewed by the type of people that use SO Careers. The open-source, script kiddie, interpreted, no static type checking, latest unvetted technology, *nix camp people. Sort of makes sense that they'd be looking for work. Well, I feel better now: :jig: [/edit] Marc

There's a word for people like you... "engineer".

I've used commercially or at least to "Hello World" level these languages: VB (more-or-less all variants) C C++ Pascal Fortran JavaScript CoffeeScript C# F# Python Perl Ruby Java Scala Eiffel T-SQL PL/SQL PowerShell Nant MSBuild The only one I really hate is Perl.

CP really needs to support :trollface:
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt
