In what way is Bitcoin not fundamentally a scam? There are multiple interpretations of "Bitcoin is a scam" you can take, and honestly with most of them I think it's been true the whole time.

Edit: I think some folks are parsing my sentence incorrectly, and I can't blame them. I didn't do a great job communicating. When I said "in what way is it not a scam" I didn't mean to make it sound like an exclamation like "how can you not think it's a scam!?", I am saying, "which specific way of people referring to it as a scam do you believe is wrong?"

But nobody else does, and I need it more on code I am consuming than producing. In fact, many functions rely on being able to send various types for different behavior. Dynamic programming is crazy to me. It's like guessing. I don't know what type your code is accepting and I have to guess based on the name of read your code directly.

You don't think the $500 million marketing budget Sun put towards Java has anything to do with its success? It was more than just luck.

For me it's the tooling surrounding it that makes it nice.

Yep, thanks to the AdoptOpenJDK project which really helped make OpenJDK builds available for all platforms. (It is now called Eclipse Temurin and Adoptium.)

You can do var thing = new Thing(); now.

Whenever I see things like this I think the man making the comment really has no idea how much unwanted attention young, single women get from random men. Especially if you're pretty and nice, men just take that as an invitation. For every genuinely polite person trying to be charming you have dozens of creeps just being weird.

You know, as soon as I hit submit I was like "that might also be a line from the song" but I was like eh, it's gonna be weirder if they see Deleted lol.

And blizzard stopped making them didn't they? (Separate topic.)

It's a line from the song.

Feels odd to include Pyre over Hades.

No.
