Hi Guys,
This is just to give everybody that works on FPC or Lazarus a pat on
the back. Seriously, you guys are doing an *excellent* job. Even
though I am sometimes a bit hard on you guys.
Having moved back to Delphi (I'm using XE at the moment) for a
contracting job, I got to the realization how bad Delphi has become.
Compared to Lazarus IDE, Delphi IDE is a joke!!
Except that firemonkey has wayyyy more complete of a component palette
set for macOS cocoa...
[rant on]
My issues with Delphi IDE in the last two weeks:
[...]
- Delphi IDE is so SLOW to start up, and I'm running a beefy Intel i7
with 32GB RAM.
Agree, Delphi is very slow to load, and use, even on a modern 64 bit
laptop
Wirth's law applies, if you know it... As computers get faster, software
gets more bloated and computers cannot keep up with the software bloat.
