		<description><![CDATA[DotNetBaby says, “I&#8217;m an expert on sucking, and I can assure you that C# doesn&#8217;t suck.” YourLanguageSucks is a wiki on theory.org that lists reasons why the most popular programming languages suck.&#160; There are long lists of reasons why Java, JavaScript, C++ and PHP suck.&#160; But the list for C# is very short: Supports &#8216;goto&#8217;.

		<description><![CDATA[Google has released a simple programming language called, appropriately enough, “Simple.”&#160; The goal of Simple is to provide an easy-to-learn-and-use language for the mobile Android platform.&#160; As a BASIC dialect, Simple is particularly well suited for non-professional programmers, but can also be used by experienced developers.&#160; Simple enables programmers to quickly write Android applications by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Arguing “Which programming language is better?” is like debating “Which religion is better?”  You will never find an answer because people have different needs, they judge with different criteria, and in the end, the debaters just end up getting pissed off at each other.  That’s why you’ll frequently see developers label the programming language debate [...]]]></description>
