That's the library that Minecraft uses, right?
136
The Java version, yes.
71
Isn't micecraft in java?
30
There is also the windows 10 edition which is rewritten in something .NET I suppose.
Edit: C++
49
Actually, the windows 10 edition was changed in 2017 to the Better Together Edition- a unity edition of Minecraft for (almost) every device
22
Have they not considered Rewriting It In Rust?
3
The lightweight Java game library. lwjgl
45
Luh Wuh Jiggle?
30
Lil Wiggle to Jiggle

Oh ... that so brings back memories ... to the early 2000s when I was dabbling in Java/LWJGL game development after school. Never made it beyond little space ships floating around thou.
Today I use Unity to create stimuli for experiments ... things have become so much easier. Both ways uphill, yada yada ;-)

OK boomer
7
I guess I earned that ... but I am team Millenial.

It’s basically just an OpenGL binding for java. Minecraft uses it yes
5
That’s farther than I got with lwjgl
84
Just fire them on the spot holy shit.
How does a tech person not know how to extract a file?
57
God what I would give to fire people from school projects
133
I've done it. Just talk to the teacher.
7
It's easy, you go to your supervisor / dean and you show them the stupid. If you don't get reassigned at least you covered your ass early on.
4†
Well idk how far you are removed from school, but that's a good way to get bullied or excluded by your colleagues.
23
Shitty school then.
Who would reveal the student that came to them?
0
Well, it's either that or fail. Your choice. The dumb won't last any way.

My team project was a year long, and my assigned team mate was graduating half way through the year. Let’s just say...that was for the best
1
Might not be a tech person, could be a BA or a XD who’s assigned to the group.

So do they use tabs or spaces?
49
I haven’t seen any of their code yet, I’m dreading it
73
Lock master branch and force reviewed pull requests now
69
when they inevitably approve their own reviews....
26
Thank god for allowing a minimum number of reviews
17
If their source control its properly set up, PR's don't even allow you to self approve your own PR. Bitbucket FTW.
9
You mean "Make a copy of the network drive where they keep all their source code."

I hope to god this was already done long before the new guys came along. Scary thought.

good bot

Calm down, Satan

This link led me into a half hour of examining random intentionally dumb programming languages (I like LOLCODE because despite the insanity it is actually understandable).
1
Neither.
6
Run
19
Ok I have the dialog box open, now what?
31
LoseAllHope_v01_final_for_real_now.exe don't forget to use elevated privileges.

... (to avoid working with) Forest!

Oh dear god no. I hate Light Weight Java Game Library, and tbh, I have Java. Ever since I got into C# and Unity, I've hated LWJGL and Java.
15
You might also like MonoGame :)
2
Or Godot with C#.
1
Is lwjgl really that bad?
1
In my opinion, yes. It's very bare bones from what I've seen. Every tutorial I've come across on it always as you using other libraries to convert existing data into data that you pass to LWJGL. I quite didn't like it for that, but some people would say, "But that's why it is called Light Weight." To which I say, Unity can be lighter and it is commonly used for mobile devices, which are limited in memory and processing speed.
1
LWJGL is a library more than an engine. It’s supposed to be bare-bones and let you do more of the lower level stuff
1
Ironic since when I search Java Game Engines back then, LWJGL was one of the first results.
1
gotta love them reference type vectors
1
They know what a zip is but not how to open it? Good lord.
14
Well seems like this kinda sucks, but c'mon man sharing is caring, just share all the cool stuff that you already now pal. You can learn a lot about it.
13
Unzipping a file is cool stuff? I'm sorry but if you can't unzip a file I shiver at the thought of you doing any kind of digital work with me whatsoever.
13
No is not, chill out pal.
-6
I am chill. I just lack the patience to do digital work with the profoundly digibetic.
7
profoundly digibetic
According to UrbanDictionary, digibetic means "A person who has developed such a dependance [sic] on internet and technological gadgets, that they go into a coma without their daily dose."
Are you Dutch? Because we have "digibeet" (referring to someone who can't handle digital media), a neologism of "analphabeet", meaning "illiterate". Literally: "analphabetic". Prefix "an" means "not" (even though "digibeet" doesn't contain "an").
3
I'm sad to hear that but I respect the way you think dude.
2
I don’t mind helping people out but at this rate I have a feeling I’ll be carrying the team for the next 10 months
9
Seems like you never work in a professional environment before, just chill out, everyone learn in his own way. And do yourself a favor and don't be an asshole with these guys.
-17
You say this, but 9 times out of 10 if the people I work with actually RTFM (or use -h) they wouldn't be bothering me with inane questions.
"How do I build xyz?" "Have you tried running the script with the name build?" "Where is it?" "In the xyz directory..."
8
You have a point, you can't solve all the problems and nobody is expecting that from you. It's more about to be team player, and before hire a new developer I really take serious the soft skills, with patience and time you can improve your co-workers skills.
0†
These are devs?

How to open tar.gz file?
tar -xzvf file.tar.gz
8
xzvf - xtract zhe vucking files. I have never forgotten it since I found this abbreviation.

My favorite pneumonic device. Don’t forget tar -compress zee files
2
Gosh. Reminds me of some students I tutor at my university. Yet I feel I lack the propper skills to land a programming gig...
4
When you spend more time training the overseas labor than you do actually working
2
I’m sorry but I would ask for a transfer ASAP. Lol
2
F
2
Student interns? I don't see how you can get through a degree or diploma without knowing how to unzip your assignments.
2
I hope they're not extracting a JAR file...
2
"What's an IDE? I open code with notepad"
2
Oh no
1
Rest In Peace

Good, they know what is zip.
Decent start indeed
Next step: Its a .rar
No its a tar.gz
No it’s a .7z
No they're in a java class so it's a .jar
It's a .trap
