@aescling @vaporeon_ but in python you don't need to know that to get going. in java you have to understand some things about how classes work to even write a hello world

@aescling @vaporeon_ and while i love python and javascript once you start looking into internals they get complicated and ugly and weird, while java is like the opposite. its unwieldy and ugly but the advanced features are usually fairly straightforward to learn

@aescling @vaporeon_ there is a "purity" to java i somewhat admire in how hard it commits to object-oriented programming but i would be lying if i said i found it enjoyable to write

@vaporeon_ to be clear, I did not like working on our backend.

(c++ is still worse tho.)

Every time one of my followers says they are stupid it reminds me of the Ulysses Ogre

@vaporeon_ reported for suggesting there is something worse than c++.
