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: * developed, sorry
gollark: IIRC right now developing countries have the slowest-growing or in some cases even declining populations.
gollark: Birth rates tend to go lower in more developed countries, and it's possible to use resources/land/whatever more efficiently as technology advances.
gollark: It's probably fine, as long as technology keeps improving.
gollark: Solution: achieve immortality.
