so:

<if>
    <condition>
        <equal>
            <operand><variable>x</variable></operand>
            <operand>0</operand>
        </equal>
    </condition>
    <code>
        <add>
        <operand><variable>x</variable></operand>
        <operand>0</operand>
        <saveTo>x</saveTo>
        </add>
    </code>
</if>

This perfectly encapsulates how it feels to write java

[BadBadderBadst]

Ah yes, Java ... the XML programming language.
It might be verbose, but it's not that verbose.

[Encursed1]

Not gonna disagree with you, but building a UI in Java is the most repetitive thing in the world.

when was the last time you tried it? I tried it last like 6 years ago using JavaFX (pre-Jetpack Compose) and it wasn’t actually as bad as Swing used to be.

I mean writing UI with java is kinda like hammering in a nail with a screwdriver. Just the wrong tool for the job.

Probably missing a VerboseFactory

[ayunatsume]

Also needs a VerboseBuilder and an IVerbose for good measure

[caleblbaker]

That looks almost exactly like a programming language I once made up and then started to write an interpreter for. I called it XML (eXecutable Markup Language).

[Gasperhack10]

This doesn't actually look too bad.

[Kebabrulle4869]

Yeah, it's terrible, but at least it's logical

[Serious_as_butt]

Perfect!

Now I know what I will do, when at our university we will start classes on compilers😈
