Sure fair point on embedded devices I can see it.
In the context of Backend/Frontend development I would question it.
I had a colleague who rewrote some string functions in Java which are part of the stdlib. He called them "Arne Tools". Arne is a name in Germany. We were doing Java Applets back then.
I always have to think of that example :D
- steveklabnik 5y agoSure, but just because it’s in the standard library doesn’t mean you use it all the time. 95% of my usage on non-embedded targets is String and &str. The “six string types” makes things seem far more complex than they are.
