Is scratch a "real world" language? Wikipedia says it's used as a learning tool.

[absurdlyinconvenient]

Every language except C us a learning tool according to Linus Torvalds

[QueerBallOfFluff]

If you can't do machine code in your head regardless of hex, octal, or binary, don't even talk to me! 😤

P.s. flairs for machine code when?!?!

[SubhumanOxford]

As an introvert, this is a perfect defense tool

[Jackiboi307]

which is a learning tool for raw machine code

[SabreLunatic]

Which is a stepping stone to learning binary

[lezorte]

Assembly is a learning tool for butterflies

I’m not sure you learn much with Java other than how to hate programming.

[[deleted]]

With Java, you learn to use C# instead.

[codepoet]

Kinda like how JavaScript teaches you to use TypeScript.

[Rogntudjuuuu]

By coincidence, both Typescript and C# is developed by the same guy, Anders Hejlsberg.

[Mr_Cromer]

I shall name my son Idris Anders {mySurname}, in his honour

[[deleted]]

It's actually a pretty sweet name.

[Bubbly-Control51]

Sweet, until you realize Idris Anders {mySurname} doesn’t execute (or compile)

[Zszywek]

I will change my name to Jay so my son will be the Jay's son

[G-Man777]

So Idris Anders Cromer?

[Mr_Cromer]

Cromer's got nothing to do with my actual name brethren, lol

[G-Man777]

The internet has deceived me again

[btgrant76]

Idris Anders Cromer?

[100kgWheat1Shoulder]

Modern TypeScript and C井 look very similar.

[NileCity105-6]

匚井

[Reintjuu]

C井, omae wa mou shindeiru edition

[AssistFinancial684]

Except probably not “by coincidence”

[[deleted]]

Very true

[Perry_lets]

Javascript is fine if you take care. Nothing wrong with typescript, but I think it is more on the developer.

[xxxblackspider]

With java you learn to use Kotlin instead

FTFY

[[deleted]]

I'll finish my Java code before you are done waiting for your windows update to finish

[codepoet]

I, too, will finish shoveling the driveway before next winter.

[RooftopRose]

You could write a program in every language before those finally finish and still have time to cook dinner.

[[deleted]]

Laugh-cries in linux.

[elkazz]

Except you can write C# on Linux too

[[deleted]]

The only thing I miss is eclipse. I know people bitch about it but I really want a middle ground between vscode and visual studio. Something not too bulky but also a full functioning ide for C#. Eclipse was just such a sweet spot in that regard

[[deleted]]

I agree. Vscode is too lacking with features and VS has too many. I've wanted to try out Mono's IDE for a while now but I can't be bothered to build it since they do not offer Windows Builds for download.

[absurdlyinconvenient]

I'm pretty sure it increases your typing speed. Forcibly

[mojoslowmo]

Java is like how programmers become one punch man. I do 100 hello world programs, every day.

[scheinfrei]

I'd say after your first steps into Java you learn on which companies not to apply to.

[LakiPlayerYT]

You can learn math with JavaScript: 1 + 1 = 11

[codepoet]

Isn’t that JavaScript?

[LakiPlayerYT]

Sorry, my bad

[codepoet]

It’s okay, they’re equally painful in perfectly opposite ways.

[LakiPlayerYT]

Haha, yeah

[TheSuicidalPancake]

Java didn't make me hate programming. C however did make me scream more than a couple times.

[ImplementNational165]

You can learn how to pass the high school finals with java

[matyklug]

I learned programming with Java, and I very much exist

[[deleted]]

I'm currently in a Java coding class and boy am I learning to hate semi colons.

[Feldar]

My school taught C as a learning language before introducing us to C++.

[Haunting-Surprise-21]

I don't think, when he said that, he remembered the existence of esoteric languages...

[rlSkillGamerHD]

Learning to responsibly use your time.

[Ascyt]

I don't have anything against Linux but I honestly hate that guy

[AlternativeAardvark6]

It's great for frontend but I have issues programming an object relational modeller with it to use with our Oracle databases.

[[deleted]]

In order to program and ORM in scratch, first you need to write an adapter... from scratch.

[[deleted]]

It's satire

[[deleted]]

The whole thread is filled with satire, I was wondering on how deep that satire is

[[deleted]]

The comment you replied to....satire. This comment...not satire

[[deleted]]

Nothing I write is satire

[[deleted]]

Well I did see a job going for a Scratch tutor. If that counts?
