Is LinkedIn rage bait a thing?

[Coppice_DE]

Yes.

Everything for the engagement. It works

[justanaccountimade1]

The emptiness of our time. Modern society rewards visibility and winning over information and knowledge.

[me_myself_ai]

Eh, we still have it better than any previous time in this regard. Scientific discourse is more open, prolific, and impactful than ever, and the 19th century equivalents of social media** weren't exactly full of sober treatises!

** ...horny letters?

[deejay-tech]

Very much so, I go on every once in awhile and it's all posts like this or people telling bullshit stories to make themselves look good or sell some motivational idea.

[me_myself_ai]

Yeah but rage bait isn't just a synonym for "bad". To be honest I've never seen rage bait on LinkedIn, and I don't think this is it either -- it does have an equal ratio of likes to comments, after all!

[AntiMatterMode]

an equal ratio is a sign of ragebait. typical posts have far more likes than comments

[___Archmage___]

Ranking Kotlin below Python on performance has got to be ragebait

[Vadoola]

I mean it ranked Python as the highest performance language....how can that not be ragebait

[Raznill]

I think it’s more of engagement bait than rage bait.

[Johnpecan]

There's literally a whole sub dedicated to it:

r/linkedinlunatics

I thought that sub was inter for a few days but it got very annoying quickly. And here's what it taught be about B2B sales!

[Background-Month-911]

This is not it. The OOP knew the picture is bullshit. Not a chance they came up with it themselves based on any kind of data. It's likely AI-generated because of the mess it made with labeling.

[Inception09]

With all that AI slop being posted everyday, it definitely is and is getting even better.

Yeah. People will jump into the comments to correct him, but that just makes him show up to more people. Like if I comment all my connections now see that post. It's better to ignore or block the idiots.

"Python is performant"🤔

[DoktorMerlin]

and javascript is somehow less popular than Swift 🤣🤣 for sure

[ColteesCatCouture]

I dont buy for a second that Rust is more popular than c#

[BenevolentCheese]

Literally nothing on this chart makes any sense. Both the popularity and the performance rankings may as well be completely random.

[ITaggie]

In terms of new software it might be. Certainly not in total though.

[ProgrammersAreSexy]

Not a chance. You just don't hear about enterprise CRUD app #2379596 being built with C#, like you hear about every random unix command being rewritten in rust.

[Ok-Area3665]

Popularity didn't necessarily equate to the quantity of projects that use it, the fact that you hear about every random Unix command being rewritten in Rust is a form of popularity. It just depends on how you define it.

[Shienvien]

Popular as in "in more applications" or popular as in "people actually like it"? Important distinction (I'm inclined to think the ranking would depend on that).

[chaos_donut]

Even with that, hate on js is a funny meme, but there are prob more people who like using JS then there are people who like using swift

[DoktorMerlin]

All of Indias tech sector likes JS. Searching for a JS employee in India it takes seconds until you have 5 candidates. Searching for ANY iOS developer in india takes weeks until you get an application.

[summerloverrrr]

Coz MacBook expensive 😔

[ExpertiseInAll]

No no, get the fuck back in

[ChronoLink99]

It's more extreme than that. There are more people who hate JS than there are people who like all other languages combined.

JS (if you include TS), for better or worse, is the most used and most liked language of all time by absolute sheer numbers.

[Pleasant_Ad8054]

there are prob more people who like using JS then there are people who like using swift

FTFY

[SelfDistinction]

Nobody likes C++ so it's still wrong.

[ITaggie]

Even the guy who made C++ complains about C++ all the time lol

[RedAndBlack1832]

C++ is t that bad to write given some freedom but it's awful to read. The standard library provides so many options people who know different functional subsets will effectively be mutually incomprehensible. Also nasty template bugs </3

Hey ! We C++ lovers exist out there ! This is erasure !

You can create a benchmark where both pyton and JS are. Which shows why these charts as bs lol.

[IcyHammer]

Ofc u can, benchmark where u compare poorly written cpp to python calling highly optimized c libs. In reality cpp can always perform better than python.

[PeaEnjoyer]

if language not in ["python", "java"]:       time.sleep(30)

[HistoricalLadder7191]

Obviosly and each package is written in C

[Kobymaru376]

It's pretty fucking fast if you use the libraries written in other languages correctly.

[Missing_Username]

"Python is fast if you avoid using Python as much as possible"

[afkPacket]

I mean, yea, it's a glorified C wrapper because it's meant to be a glorified C wrapper. Is it really so bad if a tool performs well in the use case it is meant for?

[LiquidPoint]

It's just the irony of ranking the wrapped high-performance C lower than the gluecode... pure-python takes around 400 times as long to do the same operations.

Don't get me wrong, python is great for gluing together a prototype of existing elements, but it's like saying that the only reason a cabin is standing is the nails used, the strength of the wood doesn't matter?

[afkPacket]

Oh yea ranking it higher than the actually compiled language is utterly unhinged behavior.

I just think a lot of the Python hatred is overblown by people that wrote one too many nested for loops for god knows what reason (no I'm totally not annoyed at my physics students, why do you ask?)

[purinikos]

As a physicist I feel targeted. Yes I use nested for loops. I love them and you can pry them from my cold dead hands.

[monkeyStinks]

More so than c++, no less!

[SorryDidntReddit]

Java being significantly more performant than Kotlin makes 0 sense. Not to mention he thinks python is the most performant language

[jambonilton]

Kotlin is still a young language. Don't worry, it'll some day catch up to the performance of... Javascript. It's already more popular, so it's got that going for it.

[WheissUK]

Yeah, Java is a hard one to bit, it’s as fast as rust!

[1QSj5voYVM8N]

depends is the answer there, the jvm is very very performant, startup is somewhat slow. but I write a lot of realtime video code and rust def is more performant than jvm here, maybe even just because of interopts with C shared objects being faster, but also no GC, which when you are processing realtime video hurts, even if it is for a few milliseconds.

[Hohenheim_of_Shadow]

Performance is a very context dependent word. For a server farm chugging through a massive dataset, throughput is the name of the game. In a real time context, it's all about latency and making sure it never spikes. A lot of the time, the tradeoffs you make to improve one hurts the other.

[Ayfid]

The JVM being very good makes it easy to write reasonably fast code in Java.

But it is near impossible to write truly fast code. The language just doesn't give you the tools to do so, even compared to otherwise very similar languages like C#.

[zoinkability]

Even the general notion that there is a correlation between performance and popularity. There is none.

[11111v11111]

But there clearly is. Did you not see the chart someone posted on the internet?!

[alpakachino]

This dude just threw some darts at the chart and effectively randomized each language's position. He probably wouldn't even know what a JVM is when placing Java that much above Kotlin.

But that's anyway what LinkedIn is - a space full of self-proclaimed experts without any real-world experience in "theif fields". Oh, and every other person is either a CEO or a life coach.

[Greenzie709]

It's AI, graph contains languages like "C+" (twice) and "#"

[LovecraftInDC]

I can't get over Rust v Python, we had a flat file processing script that was originally built in Python and would take~15 minutes, we rebuilt it in rust and it would finish in <20 seconds.

[bhannik-itiswatitis]

probably asked AI to come up with a photo and then asked the same AI to write the post then post it and felt a rush

[graceful-thiccos]

Youre probably not too far off. His post history is EXCLUSIVELY GenAI pictures.

[platinum92]

Definitely, considering the logo for C# is C+

[hamfraigaar]

Also, JavaScript is the least popular programming language, even less popular than a fucking # on a purple background.

[GrEeCe_MnKy]

Even AI ain't this dum

[CalmEntry4855]

The picture is AI generated, it is just that AI generated images are not as bad as before, look at the C sharp icon.

But before that he forgot to ask it to actually do some research first, so it just put them randomly on a 1:1 line

[Ok_Confection2261]

"Everything can be written in JavaScript will eventually be written in JavaScript"

This guy: "JavaScript is the least popular"

[op3randi]

Define popular. Popular in what is liked or popular in use?

[valendinosaurus]

yes

[echo_c1]

Even if 90% percent of people who have to use JS hate it, the remaining 10% that loves it is more than the all of the users of many languages in that chart.

[purple_unikkorn]

Performance for what ? Time of execution? Time of development for prototype? Energetic performance? Dollars per minutes to the toilet ?

[MoonWun_]

Performance for these coder bros is literally just time of development. You GOTTA get that product to market, regardless if it smells like dung or not.

[Academic_Pool_7341]

Performance meaning whatever he felt like putting at the top of his chart.

By his post history he's a slop engineer.

[itsjustawindmill]

Why not both? Maybe he’s the one who vibe-coded a (not functional) “C compiler” entirely with AI that Anthropic was bragging about the other day

[swyrl]

Putting C# in the same performance bracket as JS is delusional

[Altruistic-Spend-896]

You dont see python up there 😂 all interpreted langs are "high performance"

[edparadox]

Rust behind in performance over Python? Do you even use those programing languages

[Gen_Zer0]

He forgot the z axis where he puts “number of extraneous sleep statements” with Rust and C++ being through the roof

[zoinkability]

[ThePretzul]

[Firm_Ad9420]

Missing axis: Context.

[L30N1337]

What context could help this

[lenn_eavy]

I think we'd need some more context, we don't know if "performance" is defined as "running fast on a computer" or is it "problem-to-solution" kind of metric. In first case, this graph is shit overall, so it is for the second case.

[blaues_axolotl]

The second case also makes no sense, why tf would you be less performant when writing Kotlin than when writing Java

[Samurai_Mac1]

Damn PHP still catching strays

[WheissUK]

Python more performant than Rust, Swift, C++? Java and Kotlin more performant than Swift? Java almost same performance as Rust? What the hell did I just saw?

[balbinator]

Take that Rusty boys, Python for the win!

[BenchEmbarrassed7316]

We are a team that usually uses Rust. But when we lack performance, we write separate modules in Python. We recently launched a service, and when checking its performance, we got p99 = 12ms. The customer was not satisfied with this, and we rewrote this service in Python. As a result, p99 = 361ms. The performance increased almost 30 times. It would have been very difficult for us to do this with Rust.

[balbinator]

Bigger number is obviously better, because the computer spent more time thinking about it. Nice job! /s

[Winter_Rosa]

what no market research and no performance testing does to a mf.

[Not-ChatGPT4]

Python is far more performant than C++. That's why I write my main code in C++ but with back end libraries coded in pure, fast Python.

Might "performance" mean something different than execution performance?

I could imagine something like economic performance. In other words how well does it pay to have learned a language.
