  • C# is nearly the same, but much, much better.

    • It doesn’t (usually) come with the Java culture 8 layers of abstraction. This isn’t in the Java language. This isn’t in OO. Yet nearly every Java programmer makes things way more complicated than it needs to be.
    • It’s a prettier language. Similar syntax with less bullshit.
    • It’s open source
    • It’s still multiplatform. Modern dotnet / C# works on anything.
    • Both Visual Studio and Visual Studio code are great IDEs that blow Eclipse out of the water
    • It’s one of the most common business languages.
    • It’s going to be supported forever.

    If I could restrict the world of programming to two languages, it’d be C# and Rust. C# for most things and Rust for a lower level language.

    It was a good campaign. Maybe it could have been even better, sure, but the amount of Monday night quarterbacking in here is silly.

    The only thing I can question about it, I’m not even sure about.

    The problem wasn’t anything the campaign did. The problem was that “did joe Biden drop out” was trending on Google the day of the election. Tell me how to reach those people.

    Do you think there weren’t enough ads? Not enough door knocking? What exactly, would you have them do?

    (check out modern computing for why!)

    Because when you need to do a process a thousand times, you program it in an actual computer. Then you just have a specific interface for just your process that makes everything simple.

    And the developer really only needs to understand the process for a couple months. Once it’s confirmed working correctly, you’re generally done with that piece of code.






  • most likely they don’t give a crap.

    We do, a little. But we also can’t manually curate the entire instance. For things like this, it really helps if someone comes and talks to us, especially if they’re willing to volunteer.

    I don’t think that was a legitimate reason to lock the sub. Often, when you disagree with someone, you can use words instead of mod/admin tools. And that mod created an obvious strawman to rage against. They wanted much heavier moderation than we typically do, and I don’t think we’re extremely light on moderation.
