13:21 * UndeadAnno revises for a C++/Java exam tomorrow. Wow, C++ actually makes sense, now that I understand OOP.
13:21
<@Vornicus>
A twisted sort of sense.
13:22
<@UndeadAnno>
Java's syntax is clearer, IMO.
13:22
<@Vornicus>
Obviously. Java is designed to Not Make The Mistakes Of C++.
13:25
<@Vornicus>
That said it still makes several mistakes - the difference between classes and types, the complete lack of operator overloads (a mistake of going too far, really - they wanted to make it clearer what was going on, but forgot that scientific software needs operators, so removed them entirely instead of taking the Python route), == as object identity...
13:25
<@jerith>
Yeah.
13:26
<@jerith>
Still, in the words of GLS: "We've dragged them kicking and screaming halfway toward lisp. That has to count for something."
13:26 * Vornicus /really likes/ the Python version of operator overloading.
13:26
<@Vornicus>
GLS?
13:26
<@jerith>
(Massively paraphrased, but I don't remember enough.)
13:27
<@jerith>
Guy L Steele, Lisper and one of the Java designers.
13:27
<@Vornicus>
ah
13:31
<@Vornicus>
But, really
13:32
<@Vornicus>
Simultaneously the best and most horrible thing about Java is the library.
13:32
<@Vornicus>
Which has some /real/ groaners in it.
13:36
<@UndeadAnno>
Oh?
13:37
<@jerith>
And the Apache Commons stuff is even more of a mixed bag.
13:39
<@Vornicus>
There is, for instance, JDBC. Which does it right, approximately at least. It's not ActiveRecord, though really you can't expect that from something supposed to be general.
13:39
< GeekSoldier>
jerith, that GLS quote: excellent. made my day.
13:40 * jerith takes a bow.
13:40
<@Vornicus>
Then there is the Calendar stuff, and AWT and Swing, and the container classes which AREN'T FUCKING THREADSAFE...
13:41 * UndeadAnno doesn't like that Java can't apparently parse negative floats from a String.
13:42
<@Vornicus>
I still have no idea what went wrong there, it /should/ work.
13:43
<@UndeadAnno>
Should, but doesn't.
