I would love to see a web app with an interface where I select two programming languages and it shows me a really clean snippet of code in language A and says "Look how terribly hard and unclean this is to achieve in language B". (and then you could reverse to see where B outshines A).

Languages are a collection of tradeoffs so I'm pretty sure you could find examples for every two languages in existence. It also makes these kinds of comparisons ~useless.

Rosetta Code is what you're looking for, I believe: https://rosettacode.org/
