| Jun 30, 2014 at 19:41 | comment | added | Reactgular | Bugs and security holes are introduced by programmers and not by languages, and for the record I've contributed a number of security fixes to open source projects. How many closed projects have I helped??? zero! | |
| Jun 30, 2014 at 8:08 | comment | added | Den | C# is completely open-source now, yet it is still curated, planned and developed by professional devs which is nice I guess. Let's hope the "Python 3 vs 2" kind of thing will not happen here. | |
| Aug 24, 2013 at 19:46 | comment | added | Arseni Mourzenko | Note that indeed, "open sourceness" is one of the aspects of choice of a language. That's for example one of three reasons given by Jeff Atwood to explain why Discourse uses Ruby. | |
| Aug 24, 2013 at 19:44 | comment | added | Euphoric | Dynamic languages are bad for security, but "open source" is not good reason. Maybe they meant "it is easy to influence one part of code from completely different part of the code". See programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/206558/… | |
| Aug 24, 2013 at 19:44 | comment | added | CodeBeard | I disagree with the last line. Java is at one of it's lowest trust points ever. C# is considered warily by the whole open source community. Ruby is seen as solid but slow (even though it isn't any longer) and Python is the trusted work-horse glamour child of whole industries (machine-learning and data science anyone?). | |
