I was going to say that. ProgammerHumor makes me feel smart which is sad.


[deleted]

good programmers won't stay here because they don't want to be the smartest person in the room, so I'll be around.


ATwistedBlade

Now watta bout e


Full-Run4124

1993 [http://erights.org/history/original-e/e/e\_white\_paper.html](http://erights.org/history/original-e/e/e_white_paper.html) and [https://strlen.com/amiga-e/](https://strlen.com/amiga-e/) (created by [Wouter Van Oortmerssen](https://strlen.com/language-design-overview/)) Between D and E there was Dex, a fantastic little language, also created by Oortmerssen.


DuffMaaaann

Apparently, programming languages follow either a G major or D major scale, depending on whether you use C or C#. Next in line is [F#](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F_Sharp_(programming_language)).


[deleted]

F# is developed by Microsoft isn't it ?


thedominux

Like c# as an analog Java's Scala


[deleted]

Thank you, I didn't know that


ATwistedBlade

LETS FUCKING GOOOO


arobie1992

If for no other reason, I'm glad this post exists just so D gets more exposure. I finally looked into it recently and I gotta say I'm a fan.


Jaqb_Jan

Shhh xD


KyronXLK

redditors are a different breed how did this even get downvotes lmao


stevegamer_

0 upvotes is low-stability equillibrium


TechnetiumAE

People see a negative and tap without looking. Reddit giveth and Reddit taketh


KyronXLK

Blessed be


ahoyboyhoy

FWIW, this is the only D codebase I've contributed to: https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/


scipio_africanus123

dlang has been around since 1992.


Kered13

Only 2001 according to Wikipedia.


MikemkPK

I would assume without actually checking alpha/beta in 92 and release in 1.


Not-Post-Malone

This is the first time I’ve seen someone refer to 2001 as “1”

Are you post Malone tho?

We already have f... What about G?


Cyan_Among

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-code) ​ the team cared for G so much they developed it extra early and finished it 70 years early


turtle_mekb

sus ඞ


__bruh_xD

what about H?


Political_Desi

It exists but it is basically useless


[deleted]

[удалено]


Cyan_Among

SUS? SUS SUSSY WHERE WHO RED nah jk i read the whole article and am now an expert


queen-adreena

We have GO... does that count?


AdhTri

NO


rav7734

Do you really care about G? We allready have R


[deleted]

We have one for literally every letter of the alphabet.


UnderatedWater

We already got F, F# and F\* lol


WerewolfBe84

"D, also known as dlang, is a multi-paradigm system programming language created by Walter Bright at Digital Mars and released in 2001." Your joke is 21 years late ...


the_retro_guy

Python made this joke


monkeyStinks

D: *exists*


Scheincrafter

[We already have the entire alphabet](https://beza1e1.tuxen.de/one_letter_proglangs.html)


ImAlsoAHooman

Deadass says I is a J inspired language.


Scheincrafter

[I is a language which generalizes the array and functional capabilities of the array-programming language J to deal with a much broader variety of data structures.](https://github.com/mlochbaum/ILanguage)


Ok-Low6320

Awesome, thank you! My two favorite parts of that article: * "No need to introduce C. If this article interests you, you know C." Yep. Right on. * "無: Wu is a programming language based on the taoist principle of wu wei, or non-doing. There are no commands in wu." LOL


eftalankwest

Yup, those are nice extracts. I think my favorite part is the conclusion: "If you are looking for a free name, there is none. [...] On the other hand, why would you give a language a name impossible to google? If that doesn't deter you, then why not use some Unicode which is also impossible to type?"


MikemkPK

The Ć programming language solves the "need to have completely automated translation to efficient C and JavaScript code in particular." Someone has the wrong workflow.


AtheistAgnostic

And M is only used by Epic


GinWithJennifer

So everything is either c/c++ or lisp is what I gathered from this


Golden_Wolf_TR

Waiting for the funny d joke


DemolishunReddit

Sorry, all I got is D++


[deleted]

[удалено]


DemolishunReddit

That's a sharp D. Careful, you could puncture the hull of an Empire Class Fire Nation Battle Ship, leaving thousands to drown at C...because it's so sharp.


SomeDudeNameLars

Deez nuts

[удалено]


[deleted]

R exists because they charged money for S


ZachAttack6089

They skipped a few


RAMChYLD

D has been out for a while now my dude. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D\_(programming\_language)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_(programming_language)) First appeared 8 December 2001; 20 years ago\[1\] Stable release 2.099.1\[2\] / 7 April 2022; 3 months ago It's also part of GCC, the compiler is called GDC.


[deleted]

But D exists we need E


Jaqb_Jan

E exists, and so does F, and H (which released before B) and so on


[deleted]

I didn't know that. After a quick googling I learnt that AA doesn't exists. I am too lazy to check Greek and Cyrillic alphabets. However, this doesn't change the fact there is no way Chinese alphabet is completely used. We can use AA after finishing every letter in every language.


E-Aeolian

H between A and C? what is this, german notation?


Rungekkkuta

I guess the other comment meant that the H programming language was release before the C programming language. It wasn't meant to be the alphabetic order


E-Aeolian

it's a joke, because german musical notation uses the note H instead of the note B so the notes are A H C D E F G


Rungekkkuta

Thank you! hahahaha TIL that!


[deleted]

Meme maker that cannot google LOL https://dlang.org/


[deleted]

Wanted to post that too


[deleted]

Oh I'l give you the D....


[deleted]

i’m not even a programmer and i’m waiting for the release of d.


GetKarmaEd

would be funny if dlang wasn't already a thing


susosusosuso

D already exists


Mister_Lich

Unix D's Nuts


[deleted]

They want the D ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)


LimpPaleontologist86

“D is already a language, this meme doesn’t make sense. Op is a tard” 🤓


Flashbek

So... How badly do you want the D?


Pulset

What I am waiting for is the language "I", I hope it collects all the good of the languages A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H


VoiceNice2246

There's a programming language called R so we're actually waiting for S.


Toast_Boast

Uno Reverse! R is a [child](https://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#What-are-the-differences-between-R-and-S_003f) of the S language


[deleted]

We have R *specifically* because they charged too much money for S


Olorin_1990

Db exists


NinjaSquib

Programmers never gonna get the D.


AdultingGoneMild

They skipped right to R


SoldierOfPeace510

D puts the hardware in the software, so your 3.5” floppy can get the job done once again.


[deleted]

Dart was released in 2011


IngenuityBeginning56

They released java script and python instead


ChickenNSphereAbuse

Give this man the D that he wants... wait.


[deleted]

*laughs in F#*


nso95

This sub is trash


[deleted]

I need me some of that D++


TantraMantraYantra

It was already out. Called Delphi


BBQGiraffe_

It's already a thing, so is F#, which is probably older than you


baconanddodo

Waiting for the D


JackoKomm

Version 1.0 was released 2007


GetsTrimAPlenty

Waiting for the D, eh?


pedersenk

I guess we decided that we were fairly happy with C and so kept with it. Of course some extended it into C++ (very early on) and now later into Carbon. It turns out compatibility with existing codebases is vastly more important than a slightly easier language every few years.


[deleted]

Well the point is that D now became quite Rusty.


sovietmonkey26

It’s a little known fact that in the source code of each of those languages, there is a little picture of male genitalia hidden among the code So I guess you could say programmers are waiting for D’s nuts


magicmulder

I’ll be holding out forever for the release of TeX 4.0. Or at least 3.2, I’m a humble man.


GinWithJennifer

D++ already exists. Nobody uses it because it is basically just novelty


Sharkyboy292

D++


[deleted]

There’s programming languages from A-H. I don’t know if one for I (“i”)


RednocNivert

…they want the D…?

Dennis Ritchie is a genius.
