I've definitely turned into the paranoid nutcase within my friend group in recent years, I hate that everything is "smart" nowadays requiring an app/internet connection & account, just to do basic things that didn't require any of that before.

What's some things currently making you ramble like an old man?

Just "ok"?

The statement "the only language we transpile" is just wrong. Java is a language that we (usually) transpile.

Then there's LLVM, and how the frontend transpiles a language into an IR before being sent to a backend that targets a hardware architecture.

I think they meant the only language we transpile to for the express reason that working with it directly is so unpleasant.

Java is not transpiled to another language intended for human use, it's compiled to JVM bytecode.

People don't usually develop software directly in the IR of LLVM. They do develop software using vanilla JavaScript.
