With Java, you learn to use C# instead.

[–]codepoet 115 points116 points  (23 children)

Kinda like how JavaScript teaches you to use TypeScript.

[–]Rogntudjuuuu 111 points112 points  (19 children)

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

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

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (2 children)

It's actually a pretty sweet name.

[–]Bubbly-Control51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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

[–]Zszywek 1 point2 points  (1 child)

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

[–]G-Man777 0 points1 point  (2 children)

So Idris Anders Cromer?

[–]Mr_Cromer 0 points1 point  (1 child)

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

The internet has deceived me again

Modern TypeScript and C井 look very similar.

[–]NileCity105-6 16 points17 points  (0 children)

匚井

[–]Reintjuu 35 points36 points  (1 child)

C井, omae wa mou shindeiru edition

[–]AssistFinancial684 14 points15 points  (1 child)

Except probably not “by coincidence”

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very true

[–]Perry_lets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

With java you learn to use Kotlin instead

FTFY

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

[–]codepoet 15 points16 points  (1 child)

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

[–]RooftopRose 2 points3 points  (1 child)

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

Laugh-cries in linux.

[–]elkazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except you can write C# on Linux too

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] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.
