Honestly this last couple of days has been hilarious. Even if I'm not on topic people whining is hilarious; I'm so indifferent to Oni now (I get the game for free still for some reason).
This update sucks same as the last one 'cos cannot fug de sea-lock; Cannot fug da crazy cat lady :( I get two fer one & I don't complaining tho.

but i thought oni wouldn't change for anyone? aren't you wasting your time asking him to do anything, by your own words?
Encouraging someone to do the same thing that they're going to do is a far better idea than calling him a fuckup

So, I found the segment, and yes, this is valid and correct. There's nothing wrong with this code.
I'm also extremely curious why they think that if-else approach is somehow bad.

Usually when such objections are raised you end up looking at an "alternative" that's a clusterchuckle of self-references and recursions, because competent procedural programming is so last century /s

sea-lock and crazy cat lady? Now you're just testing my limits :ROFLMAO:
I fucking love this thread
Battling coders, people cursing each other, some shaming and some defending their kinks, lots of whiny brats.
It's like being back to simpler times when birdie and fuckface were no-man's-land.

There are some valid reasons/criticism. Like daisy-chaining them to the point where the code is hard to follow (though, sometimes that is unavoidable). Or writing if conditions within if conditions where the 2 conditions don't need to be separated. Or when a bunch of the conditions end in the same result.

But a lot of the knee-jerk responses to if-else statements being "overly used", in my experience, is just as you said. Like, we like to think (and I certainly did) that programming is a field base off of logic and reasoning. But there's A LOT of politics to be found in it. People insisting their new way of doing things is the better way because reasons or they want clout or they want to sell you something. Like, this is why they tried to embed blockchain and crypto into "web 3.0". (which, again, is a marketing term. There's no technology that enhances/changes the fundamental way we're view HTML and run HTTP defined "web 3.0") This is why I picked up on that post so quickly. A lot of people like to pretend they know coding on the internet for some reason but don't (Like, look at Elon Musk). And they tend to make statements like that that makes them stick out like a sour thumb.


My last point/tangent so I don't keep going off topic. I once watched a video on someone trying to push that object oriented programming is bad and how we should all stick to naming/bundling all functions like:
class1_run();
class2_run();
And so many comments were like, "This is GENIUS!" And I had to go like, "Uhhh, no. We've tried this. People use to do this prior to OOP. It was bad. It was really bad. This is why we invented OOP."

"Of course, Steve. You really should smoke all that meth and go rob a bank. What could go wrong? You're not a fuckup in any way, shape or form"
He's still making a lot of money. He's not doing it by robbing a bank. And as far as I know, he's not on meth. I'm going to keep encouraging him.

I'm not trying to disqualify anything you said or join in on this argument. OOP was popularized by c++ which lead to Java, probably the most used language out there. So we did not invent OOP because what came before was bad; it happend because Bjarne liked OOP.
