Assignments
Assignments make possible to create Java applets, for a construction exercises. These applets can be used from the command line using the AppletViewer. (Previously, they could be run in a browser, but Java support in browsers has been disabled in recent years.)
gollark: A lot of the time it's probably some configuration or weird interaction between services or bizarre local conditions rather than actual code.
gollark: Cloudflare outage.
gollark: I mean, on my site, I can afford to have *minutes* of downtime without anyone really complaining if I want to reconfigure a server, but Cloudflare has to keep everything running at near-maximum capacity or the internet explodes.
gollark: Managing high-availability systems stuff must be really hard.
gollark: They can probably afford people in different time zones, though.
