Yikes. what terrible UX for a poll.

#102And the award of least significant poll of the week goes to... Seriously, you won't get anything meaningful out of this, people will vote for the language they like and then bash the usual suspects (PHP, actionscript, C++,...). Also they will browse the first 20 entries or so and then get bored and skip to the end. I'm sure the people who "dislike cobol" (7 people at the moment) have intimate knowledge of the languag…
Well, the like/dislike are totally subjective things. I can't tell if I like or dislike most of the languages of the list because I don't use them or, in some cases, I don't use them enough to have a strong opinion.

#104I like C# more than Java because: - The .NET Framework is a straightforward way to solve a problem vs pattern oriented solutions. This is not about the programming language itself but how the people in that community think about a problem - C# evolved more than Java and it was more pragmatic. There are no operators in Java. - I really like the diversity and maturity of third party Java libs. That's why I use IKVM whe…

There are plenty of people who overengineer their .NET solutions. They wouldn't dream of starting a project without including the Unity Application Block, for example. It may be a symptom of Enterprise Syndrome rather than a specific language community.

It's quite silly asking such a subjective question, but aren't most polls just that, subjective?
Human experience is subjective. It makes no sense to make an objective poll.

#106What I like: Python (3), C, C++, Shell. What I dislike: Java, C#, PHP, Objective-C. Python (3): it just has ridiculously powerful data structures and sensible error messages C: it's simple(ish), fast and keeps yuppies away C++: has great libraries and frameworks like Qt, is fast Shell: quick and simple for small tasks Java: mainstream and boring, people expect me to use it and work with horribly broken code created b…
Working with hard core ruby, C/C++ and python people who said they thought C# was amazing (even better than their core competency). Teaming up with amazing Java developers and when they see the way C# handles generics and mixing in functional programming elements; they are blown away. You are selling yourself short to dismiss it just because it is from Microsoft.

Why do you insist that is not meaningful? Of course they will vote for the language they like, that is the purpose of the poll. Obviously people can vote from ignorance, but that goes both ways. Just as some people "dislike" cobol despite a lack of experience with it, so too do people "like" PHP despite a lack of experience with it.

#108I hope it's okay to vote Like and Dislike for javascript
I did the same for C++. I hate many aspects of the language, and it feels really ugly compared to newer languages like C#, or even D, but it's still my language of choice for some projects (mostly because the tools are mature and almost everywhere).
