    If your language requires an IDE to show you WTF is going on in the code, it’s a bad language.

    Given, there’s ways to write poor code in any language, but some are much, much worse than others. Java and JavaScript being the kings of that kind of thing.

    Some day, AI assisted coding will become so intelligent that it will look at your average “enterprise” Java code and ask the user, “WTF were they even trying to do here?” Which is the only correct response a lot of the time.
