    I did computer science, and we used MIPS Assembly…

    I ask you, when has anyone EVER wanted to use a MIPS processor lol.

    Also, for AI, we were forced to use LISP, which the lecturer didn’t teach. He graded us using a poorly written script, and if your program crashed his script, he gave you 0. You only got 1 attempt. But, when is the last time, ANYONE has used LISP either lol

    And Perl… And PHP, etc

      PHP is pretty cool if you know what you’re doing and use its modern, object-oriented features. It’s also very easy to write horrendous spaghetti code with it, which is what most people sadly do and give it a bad rap.
