I hate Java because whenever people make games or performance sensitive applications with it, performance is always complete ass shit. On top of that, it seems I always have to cave in and use Windows because when I’m trying to compile a Java project, there’s some obscure dependency can only be acquired and installed correctly on windows.

Try compiling Freerouting in anything other than Windows for example. It’s a good fucking thing Java apps are cross platform.

If you get even 1 thing wrong, the entire program stops working and you don’t get any information about it. Turns out those cryptic errors like “error: object reference not set to instance of an object at address 0x007e00” are kind of important information to have. Unless you specifically know where it’s crashing, finding the source of the problem is like finding a needle in a haystack. If it’s your own code it’s borderline manageable but you’ll regret every decision that led you up to that point. If it’s someone else’s code such as an old project from 9 years ago that doesn’t work anymore, absolutely forget about it.

The only advantage of php is that it’s incredibly lightweight. I was running an Athlon XP home server on Gentoo as late as 2022 and still had php running despite only having the SSE1 instruction set and a cpu less powerful than whats probably on a modern led lightbulb.

But ACKTCHUALLY I think django and python bottles can be run on even shittier computers than php can since they’re both python programs and python has been demonstrated to be runnable on a pentium 1. So there is no reason to use php.

How to go from only being able to compile the project on a Windows machine (due to obscure dependencies that every other Java project has for some reason) to not being able to compile on anyone’s machine at all in just 1 simple step.

I know how to use git pull, git push, git commit, git status and git add *. I don’t even know how git commit and git push works I just know you run them in that order. Whenever I break everything I give up and go outside.

See I don’t want China to win, I just want evil corporations to lose. I hope they ramp up the “fuck your copyright” shenanigans more tbh. Really stick it to them as hard as possible. Is an evil corporation in another country stealing technology from a different evil corporation in a different country really the best way to fight this? No. But it still causes bad people to lose money which in the end is what matters.

This has been said time and time again but fuck Nvidia. Preventing compatibility layers ensures games and programs that need this stuff are extra unreliable, bloated and enshittified.
