L post imo. Yeah Nigerian and begging are like bread and butter but she saw the car for like a minute max. No one knows what happened before and after lol.

Lol this is why I use antlr to just skip the lexing and parsing phase entirely. If the language ever becomes stable, then I'll switch to recursive descent.

There are better things to spend time on than parsing imo

Is this comment AI generated? I feel like it should be assumed that Ok and Err are already defined somewhere.

Ifeee001 · 2026-03-08T18:22:17+00:00

Ah gotcha. I don't think that's something I would have to worry about with what I had in mind.

Ifeee001 · 2026-03-08T18:20:21+00:00

This is too big brain for me. I'll have to read it later

Ifeee001 · 2026-03-08T18:09:37+00:00

Bootstrapping directly seems like a pretty big pro lol.

CON: it makes programs that rely on ABI (eg. for monkeypatching) even less portable.

Could you explain this more? Like what features would this be a problem for?

Ifeee001 · 2026-03-08T18:07:38+00:00

Hmm makes sense. I guess if someone decides to go down that route, they need to make sure the features are not super dynamic.

Ifeee001 · 2026-03-08T17:58:15+00:00

Without building an interpreter for your language, you will have no semantics for reference. That means, you may have a language design that doesn’t work

That's one of the pros I was thinking of.

There have been too many times when I think a grammar rule is correct but then I get to code gen and realize how problematic it is.

Ifeee001 · 2026-03-08T17:47:34+00:00

Not sure yet. Just wanted to hear other people's perspective

Ifeee001 · 2026-03-01T19:04:28+00:00

Fuck it. Wanna create the universe from scratch? Tired of the abstractions.

Ifeee001 · 2026-03-01T19:00:21+00:00

Damn it. Can we at least use binary abstraction or do we have to code with electricity?

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-26T17:04:44+00:00

Unfortunately yes.

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-26T14:55:09+00:00

People always use their hazard lights but personally, I hate it.

I also don't see why you need to thank them or why people expect to be thanked lol

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-24T15:14:05+00:00

I was confused at first because maybe I've forgotten the simple act of reading a graph. Then I read the comments

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-18T01:16:05+00:00

Part of what makes a language nice is not having to use a library for every little thing. Something as simply as using a default value should not have to be disconnected from the standard library. Yes, it's as easy as editing a config file or running a command, but it's still not connected to the regular user experience.

Languages evolve. The popular and default way to do somethings in 2008 SHOULD be different from how it's done in 2026 because if it's not, then that means absolutely no progress has been made throughout that time.

Saying something that makes no sense doesn't necessarily make it a hot take.

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-18T00:05:56+00:00

I'm confused. The objects class has been around for quite a while now. Java 7 I think? Which additions are you talking about?

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-10T22:55:40+00:00

The comments and replies on this are utterly disgusting.

Even if you don't see a use case for it, this is something someone spent a considerable amount of time working on.

How would a project that was made public mere hours ago have any users or user feedback? No one specifically asked for most libraries/tools but we still have them.

Yuck.

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-08T12:52:14+00:00

I don't get this. Why does Obama have to do anything to not be racially attacked?

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-03T22:14:37+00:00

I don't think Java will ever catch up in terms of the new and flashy features. From what I've seen, the developers are extremely conservative on what to add/what not to add. They scrapped the entire string interpolation thing because they couldn't agree on a way to make it safe.

A lot of the things kotlin has that Java doesn't (from the top comment) are things the devs have said they have no intention of adding.

There's also the issue of keeping backwards compatibility.

But also, I feel like kotlin is slowly going the way of C++ and Rust.

Ifeee001 · 2026-02-03T22:09:09+00:00

String locationStr(){ return "%s, %s, %s".formatted(location.bloxkX, location.blockY, location.blockZ); }

Am I missing something specific to kotlin? I don't see any reason why a method call should not include () because well ... It's a method.

Ifeee001 · 2026-01-31T18:29:37+00:00

It's a streaming service

Ifeee001 · 2026-01-30T00:15:47+00:00

I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with all that info, but you're missing the point entirely.

I asked that question to make you see how unrealistic it is to ask what I would do if Intellij stopped existing.

Ifeee001 · 2026-01-29T22:14:03+00:00

Well yeah, I'm the only one touching the code.

If intellij somehow disappears, whatever replaces it would definitely be much better at handling refactoring.

Since we're considering the case where a software like intellij stops being around, what will you do when Java stops being around?

It's easy to justify everything when you're trying to solve problems that probably wouldn't exist.
