Stop comparing programming languages
Python is VERSATILE
JavaScript is POWERFUL
Ruby is ELEGANT
C is ESSENTIAL
C++
Java is ROBUST
Out of all the programming languages, C++ is definitely one of them.

Python should be one of the chaotics.
You can even dynamically create global variables in there.
Or stick a new variable onto the instance of a class 🤯
or return values for properties that don't exist, and only get created on access!
I love python.

C++, lawful good
Someday the concepts will come and fix all of this. It has been foretold.
Concepts are already here - (as of now) they fix a subset of this, and errors messages can still be extremely long.
They're less like "here's every single template parameter of the involved types" and more like "this template thingy has many specializations with different constraints, here's a list of all of them and why none of them are satisfied with your parameters"
Ah, template code.
Template-C++ is not C++ after all /s
tbh i didnt even make this meme, it was my dad, i just posted it here

No way Bash is lawful, or Malbolge is chaotic... And no way C++ is lawful either.
Did you just throw the languages around at random? At least Perl fell on the right place...
ADA should be the lawful good.
Bash is chaotic neutral.
Java is lawful neutral.
Javascript fits ok as chaotic evil.
Move ASM to neutral evil.
And maybe f77 as lawful evil.

At no point should C++ be considered "lawful" or "good". Haskell would be the best.

C++ is chaotic goodl, C is lawful good in my opinion
C++ good? Shiggity diggity
I haven't used PHP in a while (10+years) but I didn't think it was that frustrating as its reputation seems to imply today. I remember their docs all had examples and I found that pretty useful.
It can be pretty frustrating when dealing with old code bases. However its introducing a lot of really great features, so if you've got the time to either start a new project or rewrite with the more modern features you'll be fine.
For what I remember, it was just a normal interpreted language but you had to put "$" everywhere.

PHP has weird decisions but in the end it's a good back end
I think the front and back end of PHP are pretty similar. They are both the same letter P after all.
i needed to switch devices to get this joke, and man, shut up haha
Ba-dum-ts!
F tier meme.
"Haha JavaScript sucks'" is the easiest way to spot someone who spends more time on programming subreddits then they do programming.
Well, JS does suck. It doesn't matter how much time I spend programming, this truth will stand
This but with PHP, kinda. It isn't my favorite language/really good, and at some point in time it deserved the hate, but it has come a long way.
JS is just insane. Learning it took far more of my time than any other language, and honestly, I'm tempted to say it's not even a single language because of all the frameworks and non-standard libraries.

PHP has got a lot of new features in the language that makes it a little bit like c# now, so it's not that bad anymore :P

I would have put assembly as true neutral
