Did you mean to respond to Gigan?

Really weird to compare to Python and C/++ when Java's closest competitors are definitely C# and Kotlin. If you were to rewrite that list comparing Kotlin and Java it would literally be nothing in favor of Java and all the same benefits for Kotlin plus more safety features. Honestly the whole article seemed forced, like @balder1993 said below. The part about java having 'functional programming' is also a laugh. It's all based on interfaces, and you have to use terminal operations to do anything on a stream, it's terrible design.

Anyone who doesn’t want to touch a Facebook product with a thousand foot pole.

Asdf is what you’re looking for. We use it in every repo and it manages every tool version with no issues.

I meant tools like jq. I hardly ever use it as it’s hard to use and as a result I forget it making it even harder to use. The same applies to awk, sed, etc. Any tool with a bunch of command line flags and hard to understand arguments and syntax will always be low on my “want to use” list. Ripgrep is a prime example of how to build a command line app that is easy to use every time without trying to remember a billion things.

I would say it’s more a cautionary tale about how people’s health is often far more important than anything we do in daily life. This focus on deliveries over life is quite worrying

I use all these tools so little that I have to relearn them every single time, making them much less useful to me than they would be otherwise.

Because lots of people thought that the previous ux was idiotic. Why are dms included with servers? That makes no sense? Why do dms disappear from the server list after you open them? It’s idiotic UX and the new way is much better. DMs are always reachable immediately and you don’t have to understand what the icons mean in order to find DMs. For my wife who uses discord maybe ten times a year, this will make her hate discord so much less.

thanks for the correction!

That’s not the same. Beeper mini uses reverse engineering, beeper just uses Mac minis sitting in a datacenter somewhere.
