Computers should understand what I *actually* meant by that. They take everything so literally.
If I mean it literally, then I will preface with the codeword "literally". Like duh.
literally print. No cap.
It's like, you know I meant from 2 to 8 and not 1 to 7. Like, computer bro, I am not feeling seen, felt and heard.
yes, i know you been in this game a while but maybe this is your first experience fighting with the actual low level parts of it
literal is always implied, always
that's why abstractions are evil, because they confuse what is literally meant
😂 I'm just joking around.
i'm laughing
it's a beautiful thing to watch these things unfold in real time that we all went through at some point, usually over and over and over again
Haven't even used PHP on this computer before, so it's like 😜
Took me like an hour, just to configure everything, so that I could try out Hello World. 😂
i think you read (some of) my kitchensink guide, how long until you could do a #golang hello world?
tbh i forget if you run linux...
Yeah, Linux.
I already have golang setup, so five minutes.
package main
func main(){
fmt.Println("hello world")
}
The End
I just sat there, all frustrated,
Why doesn't it run?
Why doesn't it run?
OMG I hate computers and it's mutual! 😭
OMG I hate my life! 😭
Oh, forgot the
haha
yeah, php is a derivative of XML
It's like, the file extension is .php
It shoulda known. Just sayin.
yeah, but php be how it do
It do be tru, tho.
i first learned it back in 2003 and i loved the dynamic arrays
💯💯💯💯💯💯
it's all so ancient history for me that i'm just now a #golang maxi
it has all the things that were important along the road and everyone else is lost in the past
I still love PHP, ngl. Only thing I can really read.
see, i know what i'm talking about, it was nice like that
it was intended to be literally the proper language to construct web 2.0 things, with some database access library imported, that's why it's called php: hypertext preprocessor
it's inventors envisioned it as a simple language to enable dynamic HTML
And it was beautiful. We had MySQL behind it, and eventually Angular in front of it.
Just worked.
*clicks his fingers to wake her out of her trance*
those days are over, milady
now you are in a war with all the retards who love abstractions and "expressivity" and object models and need to fight for actually how to process shit
Nope. We're bringing PHP back, baby!
We're gonna code like it's 2021.
#golangonly
that's the new #bitcoinonly
it was no coincidence that the two things appeared at the same time
they both solve for the same issue in different fields - eliminating abstraction and complexity
I’ve been playing with Laravel for a few weeks. 🤣 I still like Blazor better, but Laravel is pretty dang cool.
I installed Herd for trying stuff out. It reminds me a bit of XAMPP. Did you use something like that, or did you just manually set php up using the package manager?
also, you will learn to read Go
my path was this:
BASIC -> Assembler -> PHP -> Python -> Vala -> Go
Not sure what the big deal is or why go is so verbose. In Libre office Writer I just type
Hello World
And there it is.
Proof of "Hello World". 😅
It threw up errors, but wrote anyway, so oh well.
If computers didn't take orders literally, they wouldn't be computers, they would be humans.
What you want is human slaves.
Or, as I like to call them "male developers on the same team".
yes, boys and computers share this feature of literal interpretation of the salient words
oh yeah, ironically, one of the best computers ever made, literally got the brand "girlfriend" - amiga
and it was a beautiful lady, she always knew what you meant, unlike these toxic corporate intel things
