remove the /s switch, it's funnier
This, but unironically. That is basically exactly how it started (after "J#" IIRC), minus a few wrinkles ironed out because if you're reinventing the wheel, might as well try not to make the same flaws the old one had. Of course things branched out from there and C# has been a very different beast from Java since the 2000s.
I the beginning, C# was basically "Java, the good parts", developed from scratch as a new language though. J# was developed in parallel as a replacement for Visual J++, and could run essentially unmodified Java code.
At a previous workplace, we had projects that were combined C# and J# projects. It was a bit strange.
Latex creates the most beautiful documents
It's incredible, I remember in the 90s in university, some students were king of Latex and made incredible beautiful paper full of complicated mathematical formula and such
**LaTeX
We still do, we still do.
The best feedback I ever got on an assignment in grad school was "wow, your homework looks like a textbook!"
It may not always be correct, but it's always pretty!
**LaTeX
Definitely but such a bitch to use. Why do I have to learn literally a new language to finish my shitty 4 page labs report...
Unix Shell is spot on.
The C++ one doesn't make sense
I think templates is what he's making fun of.
Language snobs be like
Java is too verbose, Assembly is best 🥴
Ok nobody actually wants to write Assembly, but that's still what they sound like. Optimizing for number of characters you'd have to type if you used a text editor instead of an IDE, and dumb shit like that.
Missed the opportunity to draw in a teapot for HTML.
Error 418
spoiler
I am not a teapot.
Rust: Use of moved value. Type Paper does not implement the Copy trait.
um more like Rust: Sir this is a very good memory-safe Essay you get 100% Grades!!!! 😎😎😎😎😎
Typst should be next
418 Im a teapot
UNIX Shell should be about quoting issues
I don't get the HTML one. Is it a reference to HTTP 418?
I think the joke is that HTML isn't a REAL programming language.
