So much better now
JAVA: Just Another Version of Assembly
WASM, also known as Javascript Java
Do we have 3 assemblies now?
Actual assembly in mainstream use:
x86
arm
risc v
mainstream byte code:
jvm
.net (I think)
wasm
fake assembly people may write:
llvm
wasm
wat (web assembly text) is actually written is S-expressions, like lisp but without code as data.
Edit: formatting
The runtime is even called “common language runtime” (clr), as it is intended to support many different languages, which the jvm never was.

I hate Java because whenever people make games or performance sensitive applications with it, performance is always complete ass shit. On top of that, it seems I always have to cave in and use Windows because when I’m trying to compile a Java project, there’s some obscure dependency can only be acquired and installed correctly on windows.
Try compiling Freerouting in anything other than Windows for example. It’s a good fucking thing Java apps are cross platform.

Or so goes the promise 😅
Does Freerouting use libs with JNI or something? How does it not compile on linux?
Anti Commercial AI thingy
Don’t give Java the credit of inventing bytecode, it’s a much cooler concept than that
As with most things, it was invented in the 70s or 80s only to be reinvented again later.
