So you can sue that moose for damages when it jumps in front of your car.

There’s a bot I’ve been seeing these past couple of days that is constantly reposting posts with the title cut off in half. Like, it’d just cut it off mid sentence and replace the rest with three dots. I think it’s called @L4s@lemmy.world

Yep!

Not quite - this game is in third person.

I 100% think it would. Android Studio is hot garbage. Not just the compiler, but the whole build process.

Gradle configuration syncing takes over a minute for the most minor of changes when building a project. Importing a new package in Go takes less than a second in most cases.

Changing a version of any imported package in Android Studio has a 50-50 chance of breaking everything. Heck, even creating a new project in Android Studio has a 50-50 chance of working.

The reasons why Android Studio can’t achieve similar speeds are plenty, but here are some:

• The whole thing is a patchwork of randomly assembled pieces, with a complete mess of UI and unbelievably confusing settings.
• It is also being developed by Google and JetBrains, so no single entity is responsible for the product.
• The fact that it’s developed in Java doesn’t help, sometimes you can almost see the monstrous garbage collector having to swipe away the memory while the IDE freezes and you have to wait 30 seconds for the app to become responsive again.
• Android Studio is a resource hog, requiring at least 4 GB of RAM to work properly. I had to buy another 8 GB RAM stick just for it to function properly. Also, no matter what CPU you have, it’s still going to use it 100%.

Because after waiting for 10+ minutes for a project to build in Android Studio, something like Go feels like a godsend. Also, you’re implying that quicker is worse when it comes to compilers and Golang, which is definitely not the case, and Go’s compiler produces very well optimized executables.

Its compiler is very fast, the libraries are great, importing new packages is easy and straightforward, HTTP libraries and frameworks are some of the best I’ve worked with.

Compared to Java or C#, there really isn’t that much boilerplate.

I guess that’s why I enjoyed working with Go so much.
