Every day I wake up and wonder how software as shitty as Visual Studio came to be. An extra big 'fuck you; die in a fire' to the retard who decided that every time the mouse moves over anything that's not white space it needs to block on the main thread for a couple seconds until the tooltip context loads and displays on top of whatever you were trying to work on. No, you can't change the hover delay; that's for VS Code only because fuck you.

@Justicar I won't claim to be a good programmer, but I'm better than whoever squirted out this steaming load.

@RegalBeagle one of the reasons i never picked up c/c++/c#.. is how hard it is to just get started when one needs all this crap.

@RegalBeagle this is why i love Go. also zig is easy as well. you just download like 70mb installation and that is you, you are goo to go.

@Justicar C isn't so bad to get up and running. Seg faults are annoying, but that's what you gotta deal if you want speed. Haven't had a C project in probably a decade, so maybe someone's found a way to make seg faults less cryptic.

I've messed with Go a bit. It's on the list to make a simple Redot game one of these days.

@RegalBeagle well c is just one level above assembly, so there are a lot of guns to shoot yourself in the foot with. Go is great. i like how it got recently described by the author of c# and TS since they rewrote the TS compiler into Go. he said that Go is the lowest language possible whilst having a GC. so it has a lot of power. though in recent years i have noticed it being viewed as some tool or scripting language for simple thing and is not a "serious" language, which i just laugh off.
