@byllgrim@mastodon.xyz Yes. The term is not well defined, because it mixes generations and abstractions. I should quit using it. Capers Jones has an interesting chart in ISBN: 9780071502443, that assigns productivity level to programming language. ASSEMBLY = 1.0, C = 2.5, PASCAL = 3.5, C++ = 6.0, Smalltalk = 15.0, SQL = 27.0, Spreadsheets = 50.0

The numbers are based on actual data collected, but sample sizes may vary. They also change with project size.
