gollark: <@257937060655136779> Programming isn't really memorization. You may need to do some of that, but the hard part is the complex problem solving.

gollark: Minecraft only runs with Java 8 at most anyway, IIRC.

gollark: It's probably fine. I don't play 1.14 much, though.

gollark: I just make really simple food, which works fine and allows me to "cook" things.

gollark: Weird. I don't remember being notified about level 38.
