I just spent most of the afternoon trying to make a government java program work. It won't apply electronic signatures. I know because it throws 47-line exception tracebacks and does nothing on the UI. Its documentation is for windows xp and windows 7. Yes it is the last version, from mid last year. That's real bitrot.

Related to C pray they didn't hardcode implicitly something of the architecture. Or be surprised when a bad pointer fails in one OS but works in another.

The .net languages are wonderful. The best time I remember in my life was trying to debug what version of the .net runtime was required for a program. So much better than getting laid or going on holiday /s
