ANd this type of negligent and quite frankly unprofessional thinking is why my Athlonx2 has problems running the same application load my pentium2 333MHz did. We write poor, slow, buggy code.

I bet it isn't the same application load at all. I bet a lot of new features have been added to your new applications. And if you are talking about Windows all bets are off.

"High level languages" is bullshit. The fact is its just as quick to write a program in C as it is in Python, Perl, Java, etc- provided you're experienced equally in those languages (obviously coding in a language

I think it is pretty well accepted that you can do things in fewer lines of code with Python (for example) than you can with C. So even if you were the perfect coder and could instantly regurgitate all of the code from memory you would spend more time typing if nothing else.

you're not experienced with is always a penalty to speed). And the data all shows this- development speed is not going up despite the number of "high level" languages around today.

Can you point me to this data?
