Wait seriously? I’d have assumed it would at least be written in .NET or something and not fucking JavaScript.

Also, games went from writing the most cleverly optimized code you’ve ever seen to squeeze every last drop of compute power out of a 6502 CPU all while fitting on a ROM cartridge to not giving a single shit about any sort of efficiency, blowing up the install size with unused and duplicated assets, and literally making fun of anyone without the latest highest end computer for being poor.

You want the company stripe gone, you want this dudes life ruined, you want other companies to sacrifice time and resources and get pissed when they aren’t willing to do that because THE DUDE VISITED A BEACH.

The customer is always right. In the original meaning of the phrase: if enough people are sufficiently mad at your business to stop spending their money for your services, you as the business owner are in no position to argue with them or call their concerns frivolous.

No business owner is being forced to acquiesce to the boycotters’ demands. People are just choosing not to give them money if they don’t like what they’re seeing. If a boycott like this ends up tanking Stripe or any business that uses it, that’s literally the free market at work and the result of consumers exercising their right to choose who to do business with. Tough luck, should have adapted to the market.

If someone gives a shit about this, they’ll find a way to avoid Stripe. This might surprise you because you’ve presumably have never given enough of a shit about a cause to actually modify your behavior for it, but deciding to participate in a boycott does in fact mean having to sacrifice your own convenience and limiting the options available to you.

The way it’s written. Most programming languages call it null

Atom and Brackets had terrible performance.

To be fair so did VSCode. It took years to get it under control and even then it’s nowhere near as light as a native IDE.

also None is another annoying quirk

Does Java have an elegant way of compiling to native machine code now? Genuinely asking.

A statically typed Python would be my dream programming language.

Can someone please make Typethon?

Ok, regardless of the actual politics, this game had literally nothing to do with the Oct 7 attack given that it was written in fucking 2022. We might as well ban the 2012 movie because things really did start going to shit after 2012.

You shouldn’t get to participate in an international organization while murdering the aid workers employed by said organization.

This is just another attempt to destroy the UN.

Burh Israel literally, explicitly called for the UN to be destroyed, and named them a terrorist organization (and of course also played the antisemitic card).

Ad firm money.

Maybe I’m just cynical, but my first instinct when I see stuff like this is they have a secret contract with an advertiser and are selling this information.

Like if you’re going to use Arch btw, go all the way and use actual Arch.
