god, i dont want to be a dick but hoboman seems especially dedicated to refusing to learn absolutely anything. like you fully admit you have almost no idea what youre doing and are trapped in a hell of ancient bad code, and your response to everyone itt is basically "shut up i dont want to get better". enjoy your future cirrhosis buddy.

i mean doing a thing in a pure functional language can be a fun puzzle and can make you feel clever as gently caress, but gently caress ever having to modify it ever

how do you know this? like i find refactoring and modifying stuff in elm (a pure functional language) is way way way easier than doing the same in javascript, because elm code easily ends up being modular and composable and the compiler is v helpful

terrible programmer report:
when i first found out my employer doesn't allow c++ exceptions, i was like 'sure thats reasonable, whatever'
the more code i write, the more and more loving annoying this limitation is. it's so bad. it makes it impossible to write clean code.

Otoh I will probably try to avoid Scala when looking for future jobs. Not too dogmatically though given that it forms the majority of my commercial experience.

its just so dumb that every time i want to say

code:

DoThis();
DoThat();

instead it has to be

code:

result = DoThis();
if (!result.ok()) {
  return result;
}
result = DoThat();
if (!result.ok()) {
  return result;
}

even though its doing the same thing, my eyes fuckin glaze over with the second one.
