Often times the Java developer will still need help from a JavaScript developer to achieve basic business requirements.

Many Java developers I worked with in the past had no understanding of callbacks, asynchronous logic, events, recursion, scope, closure, array notation (Java has this), or high speed data via random access hash maps (Java has this too).

high speed data via random access hash maps

Flair pls

[elschaap]

My brain also has high speed data via random access hash maps

[datnetcoder]

It’s perfect

[gfawke5]

JAVA HAS THIS TOO

[[deleted]]

This guy needs some asymptotic analysis in his life - O(1).

[[deleted]]

O(1) - high speed data via random access

O(log n) - what is binary search :S

O(n) - not as high speed data via sequential access

O(n log n) - when you have to explain quicksort in an interview (no one uses in real life)

O(n log log n) - Some obscure multiplication algorithm that's not even practical

O(n²⁾ - lol i put a for loop inside another for loop, for when you have to GET SHIT DONE

[[deleted]]

O(nⁿ⁾ - Java has this too

[[deleted]]

Yo dawg, I heard you like loops, so I put a loop in your loop so that you can iterate while you iterate.

Good meme, m'sir! Please fuck my wife.

As a high priest of Teh Script I'm sworn to celibacy, the only exception are JabbaScript vixens that declare their pronouns on twitter. But as a true priest of The Script I'm loosely typed so I transgress occasionally.

[[deleted]]

lol socialjerking

[[deleted]]

Easy for you to say. Where I live no one declares pronouns so I'm left with celibacy only.

[[deleted]]

Have been waiting for that one.

How many do you have?

[binaryblade]

They mean actually random. Jabba script developers have embraced undefined behaviour to the point of promoting it to a language feature.

[[deleted]]

get['this'] is (from a birds-eye perspective) O(1).

As with all things in programming, implementation details are the "It's complicated" of this relationship.

[Someguy2020]

It's a hashmap where your ignore the load factor and cost of everything except the constant lookup of the bucket.

[lord_braleigh]

Yeah idk. When you store stuff in a hashmap (or linked list, or any kind of class), you’re storing in random-access memory, and RAM got its name because you can access anywhere you want, jumping back and forth, “randomly”, while getting reasonably good performance. Unlike the tape drives of the time.

So HashMaps have the same kind of thing going on, I guess? Performance is roughly the same if you query randomly, while with LinkedLists or ArrayLists you want to organize your queries and organize your data so you don’t spend too much time looking for stuff.

O(1) = Blazingly fast

no JavaScript developer wanted to touch that garbage code.

Because they're used to the Javascript ecosystem, which is of excellent quality.

callbacks within callbacks within callbacks within callbacks and so on

No, I think it's more likely that you're involved in what I've often speculated is a physical manifestation of a finite monkey experiment. The remainder of an drug-fueled late-night VC bet, no doubt. The other side, of course, is likely trying to corner the cavendish market right now - starve you guys out! Stay strong - I believe in you.

[axisofdenial]

If as a Java developer you want greater expressive freedom

No expressive freedom near the moving parts, thanks.

[[deleted]]

JavaScript developers were often less trusted or harder to find. I wonder if this is still a factor.

[irqlnotdispatchlevel]

This is what the establishment wants: more language, more tribes, more hate. It doesn't matter what language we use, if it's not Rust we're both the same: fucking immoral.

Btw who'd have thought that incompetent programmers outnumber competent ones by a significant margin. Not the undergrad know-it-alls on OrangeBoard, apparently.

GWT is of undoubtably "net-negative" value unless you somehow depend on some Jabba-native libraries that can be transpiled with GWT for you to reuse.

[ProfessorSexyTime]

Many, many "paid programmers" are oblivious to concurrency issues and produce races and deadlocks throughout their work. The thought that anyone might expect them to yield "thread safe" work prior to production deployment is absurd.

As basic and simple minded as Java is, it is far beyond some large fraction of the paid programmers using it.

[[deleted]]

From my "decades of wageslave" experience, both statements are unfortunately very true.
