Roberto von Archimboldi · 4w Why are there so many different programming languages? Don't they all do the same thing in the end? #AskFedi, #Confused Khleedril @Khleedril 1780081390 @nprofile1q... Generally speaking, they are evolutions of one another. Trouble is evolution is a slow process, and there is also a lot of inertia in programming. Hence a lot of languages are floating around.
