This took an infuriating amount of time to debug

@vaporeon_ understandable, it can be hard to operate a spoon without opposable thumbs

@monorail based

@monorail hell yeah where do I start

@monorail oh I love writing evil code I would probably like code golf

@monorail teach me, master

Groovy is supposed to be a superset of Java but there are situations where that isn't true. For one thing, the syntax which initializes an array in Java ({ 1, 2, 3 }) is syntactically ambiguous with something groovy made up called "closures" that I am not going to explain, but only if the array has a single element. If there are multiple elements the syntax is not ambiguous and things are fine

Because of this I passed a closure to something written in Java that expected an array of strings BUT IT DID NOT THROW AN EXCEPTION???????

@vaporeon_ it is a scripting language that runs on a JVM and can interface with existing Java code. It's what JavaScript sounds like it supposed to be

I think it sucks a little but but it can be fun sometimes

@monorail nope

@vaporeon_ no it is a groovy script

I wish y'all could understand how scuffed the code I am writing is, it is glorious and stupid

@monorail hell yeah

@Lady I never use debuggers tbh

@Lady 🤓 but it is best practice to use your IDE's debugger

So I've reached the rare situation where logging things to console is actually the right way to go about things

@coriander who you callin a weirdo >:(

@Lady there happen to be two romantic comedies that were once on netflix named accidentally in love but i only see one trailer with chinese dialogue

@Lady what is your silly romance show

@Satsuma @Lady @aescling this answered the question in every possible way thank you

@Lady @Satsuma @aescling a lot of comments are angry that the mc doesn't get involved in any romance
