yeah but java and ruby and python all suck for that because you have to screw around with dependency management in the first place. in php all you have to do is include what you need

rotor posted:its sort of the equivalent of riding lawnmowers slowly over a decade becoming the standard mode of transportation with all this carlike poo poo crudely welded onto the sides and now your actual car can't drive on the tiny little roads and every time someone raves about some great feature of their new mower like "hey did you hear? the new model John Deeres have these lamps that let you safely drive in the dark so you don't have to carry a flashlight with you! they're called 'headlights!!!" you look back on your audi or lexus or whatever and die a little inside lol you sad old man. its more like how when cars were first invented farmers wanted to make people hide their cars in bushes whenever horses were going by.

Shaggar posted:theres no reason that the language features from desktop apps cant be used in web apps. ex: replace javascript with byecode, replace html/css with xaml. you write whatever you want and it gets compiled to bytecode that gets sent to the client rather than the client downloading the source and compiling it in realtime which limits your language availability. then replace html + css w/ something like xaml and u've got dynamic UIs that are fed to the user over http. all the benefits of desktop apps, none of the shittyness of js/html/css. this is the grossest post. ugh.

there are 256 characters. many are used for drawing boxes with single/double borders. all the other characters are fake ones made up by some guys in sweden. i'm not saying you can't use the fake characters, just understand that they're technically 2 or more real characters and the computer is pretending they're something else
