Ugh.

From 2004-2008 I was heavily invested in Delphi and it was as simple as it could get: install IDE, then begin to code.

I recently took programming again and it was a nightmare to catch up with the modern developing mindset: framework on top of framework, libraries everywhere to perform basic functions (I really hate Java), lambdas, npm, git, etc.

I catched up with modern times, but it was unfunny and frustrating.

The problem is with JavaScript - not Java. You really have been out of the loop.

No. I really meant Java. I hate it with all my guts. Fortunately, it's no longer the default programming language for Android Studio. I like Kotlin way better.

I think Javascript is just kinda ugly mashup of badly implemented good intentions but it's gladly evolving. I love Typescript, to be honest.

Well that's because you're an Ex-Delphi clown and are jealous.

You know... the only people who fight over OS and programming languages are those with soiled underwear. Since my underware is quite clean, I'll let you do all the fighting.

Have fun.

Stay ignorant. I figured you were anyway when you mentioned Delphi.
