wouldn’t be that difficult.

The amount of times I said that only to be quickly proven wrong by the fundamental forces of existence is the reason that’s going to be written on my tombstone.

Look at this fancy guy using an abacus. Everyone knows the superior way is to harness your own mind as your computer.

It’s way worse on C and it’s family. I still have nightmares with undocumented embedded dependencies that are so intertwined with the codebase that make JS look like a godsend.

The only complaint I have, and it’s not really a problem with the OS itself, is that the Realtek driver is unstable at best, and will crash every five minutes.

And OP talks about Alchemy, which commonly uses the energy that different materials have inherently to create magical artifacts.

It’s literally using what God already created.

If it involves pointers, not unlikely.

That is an abomination. I will probably use it in a not-so-distant future.

Honestly, given the context of a browser, Javascript’s “Everything is better than crashing” philosophy does not seem too out-of-place. Yes, the website might break, but at least it would be theoretically usable still.

Yes, a statically typed language would help, but I’d rather not have one that is “these two types are slightly different, fuck you, have a segfault”, but rather one that is slightly more flexible.

With C, you need to carefully craft your own gun with just iron ingots and a hammer. You will shoot yourself in the foot, but at least you’ll have the knowledge that it was your craftsmanship that led to it.

With C++, there are already prebuilt guns and tons of modifications that you can combine at will. If you shove it in the right way, you can make a flintlock shoot a 50 call, but don’t complain when your whole leg gets obliterated.

And yet somehow it evolved to become something that will last to the heat death of the universe.

I’ve grown used to it with time, though. Once you know it’s “quirks”, it’s not so bad.

Yet

Yet not many people can brag about breaking half of the internet in one swift blow.

Specially the shiny stuff.

Someone could have hidden something malicious within your ideas, better create a whole new conceptual system.

With themselves!

Well, given the C projects I’ve worked on take hours just to compile, I think I can cut some slack for any IDE for being slow. Though I haven’t used CLion a lot so I can’t really speak from experience about it. Though VSCode is fast enough most of the times, and it usually only gets slower with nested macro fuckery and/or external library headers.

Playing the devil’s advocate here, even IDEs like Visual Studio and IntelliJ have multiple times crashed on me or taken ages to update a single line on intellisense. C++ is simply a language where a dynamic LSP is everything but easy to make.

Oh, yeah. When people discover shallow clone vs deep clone is when shit hits the fan. Though anyone that comes from a C background shouldn’t fall on those traps either way.

Say what you want about it, but it will not go down without using everything in the vicinity as a weapon if ammo runs out. While others go down, they will be kamikazeing themselves to get the job done.

I shall henceforth take the title of wizard.
