Survey - what language are you coming from?

[Chris Miller]

Mostly C.

VB -> C++ -> C -> D
with a mix of some of: asm, PHP, C# and others


VB was mostly a waste of time.
C++ was *cool* but it's pretty messed up.
C is still my favorite language but it's not always practical; it's  
showing its age. It encourages mistakes.
D is usually the best tradeoff. It's not perfect, but it's safe and fast  
(to code and execute) with no dependencies.
