As long as I'm posting links to /., I thought I'd pass on this link. Lotsa discussion about whether C/C++ is better than Java, with potshots from various other language advocates (Smalltalk, Python, Ruby, ASM, etc...). Over 900 posts to wade through, with a few intelligent ones scattered here and there.
Having graduated with an Economics degree, I am reminded of the old adage about how if you put three economists in a room, you'll get four different opinions (what with everyone having multiple other hands). Likewise, the question of what language to use in an introductory course produces more than one answer per participant.
