Recently I saw some comments on Twitter and Stack Overflow commenting how a "X" language was terrible, and then a bunch of comments arguing back and forth.

Was a little tiring reading i. I thought... after being a dev for 20 years, we are still!! arguing over this. Felt like as I aged the goal become a focus on writing good code and I've accepted that all languages have some degree of suck. (TBH The suck resides with the coder most often)

Thought I'd make some shirts for wearing at local meetups to proclaim "X" sucks, write good code.

It was a semi-hit, so I opened this store to my tech peers to join me.. if you dare wear one of these in public. :)


It would be nice to compare the order of who bought more shirts with other orders like Tiobe, or the number of questions in Stack Overflow, or the number of repos in Github.


I love that idea, purchases could be equivalent of commits. LOL


RocketPlan Tech | Vancouver, BC / REMOTE | Senior, Intermediate & Lead iOS Engineers, Senior & Lead ReactJS Engineers, Laravel/PHP Engineers, Product Owners

RocketPlan is a remote startup focused in hiring across North America and Latin America. We are focused on creating a unified solution to manage a restoration business from our app. Restoration is an incredibly high stress environment, and we are committed to lower the stress of our customers and making them money in the process with our app. We are early stage, pre-revenue and offer equity to our employees. Code quality is important to us, just as much as building a product focused environment where every person has an opportunity to speak or support the entire product design/development process. As a development leader, it's important to me that we have an open door policy and when someone wants to make a suggestion (e.g. how to improve the app), I encourage them to think about how we should solve the task, instead of leaving it to the more senior staff.
