  • It is hard to have male friends, but not impossible.

    I’ve had luck bonding with men over shared interests. Stuff like firefighting, CrossFit, rock climbing, weight lifting, running, programming, board games, DnD, painting, figure drawing, theater, sailing, and music are all great ways to meet men and have something to bond over initially.

    The trick is being interested in something and finding other people (like through meet ups) who are into the same things. Not all are best friends forever, but a few are lifelong.
















  • It’s much better today, but in 2010 that was 100% accurate.

    That being said, using Java as a first time programming language is like a 15 year old trying to fly an airliner to get a few blocks away to pick up some after school snacks. Obviously it’s way overkill. Sure you could get across town with it, but it’s probably 1000x more complicated than just a simple bicycle or even walking.

    Java is industrial strength for professionals. There’s absolutely no consideration made for educational usage.
