 			<p>Today's West is currently at the level of the decaying Greeks, heading toward complete idiocracy.  The programmers in Silicon Valley are like Ptolemy, able to construct and maintain horrible overcomplicated monstrosities, but totally unable to innovate at a fundamental level.  All good programming ideas are rejected because they don't fit into current programming ideologies.  Any programmer like Aristarchus who comes up with a good programming idea will be rejected and ridiculed for violating orthodoxy.  Modern programmers are in love with their own ideas and love complexity.  They hate simplicity and anything that violates their ideologies.</p>
 
-			<p>For a concrete example, consider <a href="https://www.luan.software/goodjava.html#parser">my parser</a>.  It is a basic innovation that massively simplifies parsing.  So what reception did it get?  Of course <a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/Compilers/comments/cv78b3/parsing_for_programmers_who_hate_modern_software/">it was ridiculed</a> by modern programmers.  This is the same story as Aristarchus.  Modern programmers naturally hate everything that is good and only love what is horrible.</p>

 			<p>Given this situation, what should a good reactionary programmer do?  In Matthew 7:6, Jesus said "Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces."  Good software is pearls and modern programmers are swine.  So do not repeat my mistake of showing good software to modern programmers.</p>

 			<p>The result is that alt-tech is just as bad as (if not worse than) other modern tech.  A while ago I looked at YouTube alternatives, so I will use this as an example.  BitChute is horrible because its core function, video streaming, is horrible.  Videos often stall or don't play at all.  And BitChute's search is horrible.  BitChute is a technical failure.  Odysee is horrible because they require a password so complex to sign up that I couldn't produce one.  This reflects modern programmers' obsession with security in places where security doesn't matter at all.  Modern programmers, even on the right, hate individual freedom, so they refuse to give users the freedom to choose their own password.  And of course they can't be bothered with making things easier for users by, for example, generating a password for the user.  Since Odysee obviously hates the end user, I won't use Odysee.  Rumble had issues when I looked at this some time ago but seems to have fixed them.  Rumble actually may be okay, which means that they are as good as YouTube.</p>
 
-			<p>An example that I know even better is Reddit alternatives.  Here there really is nothing usable, which why <a href="/freedit.html">a Reddit alternative is needed</a>.  In that post I also go into detail in explaining why software from the Right is no better than other modern software.  And I have looked at all available Reddit alternatives, and as expected they are no good.</p>

 			<p>The problem with alt-tech is the general problem with the Right.  They miss the core issue.  The core issue is not politics.  The core issue is culture.  Modern western culture is evil, so it will always produce bad software, bad politics, and bad everything else.</p>

-			<p><b>Java mail library</b> - The original <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/api/javax/mail/package-summary.html">javax.mail</a> was a huge overcomplicated mess.  This JavaMail package has since <a href="https://javaee.github.io/javamail/">moved to GitHub</a> where it belongs along with other horrible modern software.  Googling for alternatives gives you other libraries that are built on top of JavaMail.  Naturally I rejected all the garbage and wrote my own <a href="https://www.luan.software/goodjava.html#mail">goodjava.mail</a> from scratch.  This whole library is a little over 200 lines of code and is a thin layer on top of SMTP and MIME.  Modern programmers hate thin layers because they always think that they can do better than the underlying layer.  But a thick layer actually adds complexity and makes debugging more difficult for the user of the library.  My thin layer lets the user set the headers directly.  Does this mean that the user has to fully understand MIME headers?  No, not at all.  The user can just send himself an email of the type he wants using his favorite mail client, say gmail, and then when he receives the email, he can look at its source (with gmail "Show original").  Then he can just copy the headers into his code.  If the user is doing something complicated, then my thin layer gives him complete control to generate exactly whatever complex email he wants.  With modern libraries with their disgusting thick layers, it is always a struggle to do anything complex.</p>

 			<p><a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/">Bash</a> is a Unix shell or command line.  There are many shells available but Bash is old and standard.  None of the alternatives are better, so stick with Bash.</p>
 
-			<p>Bash is the first programming language that one should learn.  This isn't the conventional approach, but think of human languages like English.  Does one start a new language by having conversations or by writing essays?  The command line is like having a conversation with one's computer while a program is like an essay.  Using the command line will naturally get one used to the right kind of thinking needed for programming.  The next step is to write programs (shell scripts) in Bash to automate what one does from the command line.  Another benefit to learning bash is that it helps one understand one's computer.  Bash deals with basic concepts like files and directories.  Note that the first <a href="/books.html">book</a> recommended here is <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Unix-Programming-Environment-Prentice-Hall-Software/dp/013937681X/">The Unix Programming Environment</a> which introduces the shell.  To learn Bash, see <a href="learn_bash.html">my Bash tutorial</a>.</p>

IDEs are one of the horrors of modern programming.  They are bloated, overcomplicated, and inflexible.

 			<p>So why rewrite Nabble in Luan?  I would benefit from no longer having to support Nabble.  Users would benefit from having a supported forum platform.  There are still Nabble users who would benefit from this.  In addition, any programming project involving multiple people could use Nabble to manage the project.  I haven't seen a better way of managing online projects than Nabble.</p>

 			<p>I found what I think is <a href="https://map.churchindex.org/church-profile.php?id=c7797e65-90ff-11ee-b0e9-00163eb3bc90">the optimal church</a> <a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/FKj2uoSBV3QiomS79">in north Mexico</a>.  When I visited them, I didn't have a clear plan of what to do.  A number of them are carpenters and they expressed an interest in better carpentry software.  So now my plan is to develop good tools for programming carpentry software, and then try to get a Mennonite from this church to work with me on implementing a carpentry program.  If he can make money by selling this program to other Mennonites, then I hope that this becomes a seed that encourages other Mennonites to learn good programming.</p>
 
-			<p>My recent programming has been web development, so my programming tools are designed for this.  But for carpentry software, I need to support a desktop user interface and 3D rendering.  It will take me some time to develop these tools.  First I will implement a text editor in <a href="https://www.luan.software/">Luan</a> as a real application that requires a desktop user interface.  Then I will implement basic 3D rendering.  Only after these are done will I go back to the Mennonite church to discuss my plan with them.</p>
