@adi@twtxt.net @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org (#wije7wq) Haha! 🤣 A good friend tells me it’s like this… You do what you have to to fill the shit bucket until you’ve filled up the money bucket and then can quit the shit bucket ☺️

(#wije7wq) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org (#hut4mnq) I am so sorry for you. I left my Java job for Go. Though through “restructuring” its become a Python job.

(#wije7wq) The last versions of Java that I used extensively were 1.5 and 1.6. I have to “admit”: Those versions were great (as a language, mostly). Well-structured, clear, unambiguous, good multithreading, no memory management madness. After that, all the type inference features ruined it for me (that also ruins Go and Rust). I want to read the types with my own eyes, without having to rely on a magical IDE to tell me! 😢 (Yes, scripting languages like Python are the worst in that regard.)
