-_-…8 needs to die already. Most of my projects heavily depend on modern features, I even have one that straight up requires JPMS

Don’t you mean buttbuttinate?

It’s replacing all instances of arse and ass with bottom…but doing so in about the most naïve way possible.

Most of the situations I encounter RSA are in projects where I hope RSA is implemented correctly. I have a lot of Let’s Encrypt certs that are still RSA and my main SSH keys are still RSA. All of these were generated quite some time ago. I understand the problem with projects that implement it incorrectly but I’d hope OpenSSH and certbot aren’t those projects 😥

Fact of the matter is RSA is perfectly secure still…and ECDSA/ED25519 should also be extinct given the rising need for post quantum cryptography

I do whenever there is a vulnerability of note. I don’t do it on a regular basis though.

Just checked, I’m at 311 on my main server

This meme must be old as Java 9 added jmods

I’m both IT and development…and I’ve caught both sides being utterly wrong because they’re only familiar with one and not the other

I also love Java, especially all the goodies added in 17. I’m not German though… 🤔

I’m so glad someone posted this. I was going to lol

Wow that sounds like a headache, even though I’ve avoided python for other reasons that sounds like an additional reason to do so. Also the reason I avoid npm isn’t for a technical reason like you’ve outlined here. It’s because even installing npm requires me to install an entire other Linux distros worth of packages. Why do I need to install like 100+ new packages just to use a freaking package manager???

…is it truly that bad? npm is the reason I don’t even install software based on node on my machines… python doesn’t seem nearly as bad by comparison? (I run it, just don’t like to write it) Maybe it’s worse than I realize

That syntax decision is single handedly why I avoid python if possible

Wells Fargo cuts to 14 on their sign in page but not on their change password page, ask me how I know

You’re talking about Java(Jakarta) EE, my comment is primarily targeted at Java SE. I find that the Java standard library on its own and core language is pretty nice if you use modern versions like Java 21. If I had to complain it’d be about checked exceptions, they annoy me but otherwise the language is fine. I’ve never worked with the full enterprise web stack, I use servelts for web and do a large amount of Java SE desktop development, not with swing, fuck swing. Primarily LWJGL and JavaFX. I love that language, more than most. At work I use a lot of C# and I hate it, I miss Java when I have to write C#. I just don’t love it, mostly due to all the little annoyances and missing things(no labeled breaks, no diamond operator for generics, etc). I try to use Java for projects where I can but it’s not always an option.

Honestly modern Java has a lot of really nice features and I think it gets a lot of unfair hate

I find I ask less questions now because I’m a better programmer and just visit the site less in general. I used to ask a lot. I actually don’t find that many duplicates though, usually when I have a question there isn’t already an answer… usually because when I have a question I’m doing something insane, I find I do that a lot lol.

Consistently? Not that I can think of either but there was that one judge in the Oracle v Google Java case that I believe learned enough programming to call BS on oracle’s claims.

Should probably fix that given we’ve been out of IPv4 for over a decade now and v6 is only becoming more widely deployed
