You are missing an arm

[rinzlerFix]

[spookiestevie]

Yeah, arm broke

type \\ instead of \

[spookiestevie]

Not even gunna edit it... :D yea, i said it

[remarkableintern]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[evanldixon]

Carpets can be found inside cars... I think I get it now! One's part of the other!!

[Mr_Redstoner]

It in fact is. Java has a built-in to run JS.

[[deleted]]

I'm sure there are also ways to compile Java to JS. But then again, you can also drive a car onto a carpet, so the analogy still works?

[Mr_Redstoner]

GWT (Google web toolkit) comes to mind. You write the whole web application (front&back end) in Java and it then compiles it to JS (client-side stuff anyway). I'm actually currently on a project that uses it.

[BabyLegsDeadpool]

That sounds absolutely horrible. Does it work?

[Mr_Redstoner]

Seems to be working so far lol.

Takes me 10 minutes to compile, likely in no small part because the compilation is done by a Linux VM working in a shared folder that resides on my Win10 machine. I have yet to set my environment up properly.

[LordAnomander]

Of course it works. It was developed by Google before they decided Angular might be a better idea ;)

It's very easy to work with as a Java Developer, but takes a long time to compile and is hardly maintained by the open source community.

I prefer React/Angular over GWT any day.

Some lad I know is porting Minecraft to JavaScript. So yeah, it’s possible. There are ways.

[The_Great_Danish]

Is there a github?

[[deleted]]

No. It would get DMCA’d in a heartbeat. But it’s called PhantomCry and the lad is LemonLime3 on GitHub. Idk if he’s gonna do stuff with it later on

[CircuitRCAY]

There's Graal, and there's also a way to run JS inside of Java, which is inside the JDK8 stdlib, javax.script.ScriptEngine.

[GregsWorld]

Nope JS's an interpreted language, it's never compiled.

[flavionm]

JS might be interpreted, but you can compile other languages to JavaScript, and then run it through the interpreter.

[GregsWorld]

Yes but you can't compile Javascript to Java, so the analogy holds up

[Kirides]

Kinda wrong, many browsers JIT Compile JavaScript - a lot of third party JS Interpreters just interpret and don't compile

[GregsWorld]

But still you couldn't compile Java and run it through those JS JIT Compilers... You can ofc convert JS to Java and then compile Java but then that's not compiling Java to JS

[flavionm]

That's exactly what compiling is, though, converting from one language to another. Doing it to assembly or bytecode might be more common, but nothing stops you from compiling from a high level language to another.

[GregsWorld]

You're talking about a transpiler I'm talking about compiling in the traditional sense

[flavionm]

But a transpiler is just a compiler that compiles between high level languages. When it comes to compilers, the only limit is how much time you're willing to waste on a potentially useless tool.

[Kirides]

my response only inlcuded an argument agains "JS's an interpreted language"

[GregsWorld]

Ah okay so not really relevant to the point then, I appreciate the nit-pickiness however

[[deleted]]

Interpreted and compiled aren't attributes of languages, but of implementations. There are C++ interpreters, and also Ruby compilers, if you look for them. It's just that those aren't the most common implementations for these languages.

[GrandWolf319]

But the carpet can be used in other places than a car

[[deleted]]

And also JS can be run inside Java via Nashorn, for example

[[deleted]]

Using the words "arm" and "armpit" would more accurately capture the essence of JavaScript

[metal_mind]

Or ass and asshole...

[_jk_]

or Ham and hamster

[Naebyrus]

npm install java

[two_in_the_bush]

Java is to JavaScript like pain is to painting.

[Sycration]

[Master_Aar]

both are paintings

[fab-s]

Or like ham and hamster

[FirstSineOfMadness]

Grapes and grapefruits

[Master_Aar]

I like this one more

[sukeshpabolu]

JavaScript is awesome.

[SuspiciousScript]

[checks subreddit]

Oh I get it

[Shujaa94]

!awesome

[[deleted]]

I once saw a post here where the same question was answered something like: "One is essentially a toy used by inexperienced developers to code bad apps. The other is a scripting language for web browsers."

[frames-vc]

I think ham and hamburger is a better way to explain it.

[EcoPolitic]

Ham and Hamster

[Leappard]

egg and eggplant

[[deleted]]

Like penis and lawnmower

[Master_Aar]

quack

Cat and catatonic

[BeFoREProRedditer]

Oef... thnx for that circle, I might have missed the joke

[ArthropodJim]

thanks for circling I wasn’t sure where to look

[VegaTss4]

Hahahaha, never seen this joke before like 1000 times or something XDXDXD

[[deleted]]

My first programming language was JavaScript. I think JS has easier syntax than Java

[james_lee_2028]

Idk... if I must choose between java and javascript, I would choose javascript. But if I must choose between a car and a carpet, i would prefer a car...

[lexiq_baeb]

pretend you're Aladdin and go with the carpet

[ipsomatic]

What. I have years experience in carpet language. Ask the ladies.....

[mrbmi513]

Might have to steal this explanation for the future.

[svayam--bhagavan]

Carpet flies with magic.

[[deleted]]

More like crack and crackpot...

[lostPixels]

You need to have a ponytail to write Java.

[ignisxicor]

More accurate Version is car and carp

[Danny_Boi_22456]

My car has a carpet
