I’m so glad someone posted this. I was going to lol
Wow that sounds like a headache, even though I’ve avoided python for other reasons that sounds like an additional reason to do so. Also the reason I avoid npm isn’t for a technical reason like you’ve outlined here. It’s because even installing npm requires me to install an entire other Linux distros worth of packages. Why do I need to install like 100+ new packages just to use a freaking package manager???
…is it truly that bad? npm is the reason I don’t even install software based on node on my machines… python doesn’t seem nearly as bad by comparison? (I run it, just don’t like to write it) Maybe it’s worse than I realize
That syntax decision is single handedly why I avoid python if possible

You’re talking about Java(Jakarta) EE, my comment is primarily targeted at Java SE. I find that the Java standard library on its own and core language is pretty nice if you use modern versions like Java 21. If I had to complain it’d be about checked exceptions, they annoy me but otherwise the language is fine. I’ve never worked with the full enterprise web stack, I use servelts for web and do a large amount of Java SE desktop development, not with swing, fuck swing. Primarily LWJGL and JavaFX. I love that language, more than most. At work I use a lot of C# and I hate it, I miss Java when I have to write C#. I just don’t love it, mostly due to all the little annoyances and missing things(no labeled breaks, no diamond operator for generics, etc). I try to use Java for projects where I can but it’s not always an option.
Honestly modern Java has a lot of really nice features and I think it gets a lot of unfair hate
Should probably fix that given we’ve been out of IPv4 for over a decade now and v6 is only becoming more widely deployed
This sums up how I feel nicely. No issues with parens…but whitespace…fuck that shit
Always has? It’s supported java and I think python for forever
Tom Scott actually has a video about this which also talks about why you can’t end sentences with contractions. https://youtu.be/CkZyZFa5qO0
🤔 that’s a fair point…
It’s actually not. Objective-C is a superset of C. C++ is not. It’s MOSTLY compatible…but it’s not a superset. See the restrict keyword, or the need for casting to and from void*, or the inability to name variables new or delete, or class, or this. I can’t count how many C projects I have which use this as a variable name that WILL NOT compile as C++…or the need for extern C to call C ABI code…in no way is it a superset
EDIT: lol, you can downvote me if you want but I think you need to lookup what a superset is
There was actually a really interesting idea I heard to have no time zones. And I actually think it could be a good idea. It’ll never happen because people would need to re-learn time but if it was always the same time everywhere it would make scheduling and business so much easier. No one would need to convert between different zones or be late because of an incorrect conversion. The downside is that times which are conventionally morning or evening etc, would no longer would be so people would have to get used to time just being a construct for scheduling and not a representation of the natural day/night cycle…but it actually doesn’t sound like a half bad idea.
From a development perspective it certainly sounds easier to have one global timezone with DST than a bunch of smaller ones without it. Would that make sense in reality? Probably not but I definitely think timezones take more work to compensate for properly.

🤔… I’ve never liked i and don’t use it…not sure why. I keep thinking I should start but alas I just don’t.
I’m both IT and development…and I’ve caught both sides being utterly wrong because they’re only familiar with one and not the other
