    What does not work
    ...
    capitalism (IRL; I wouldn't want to try implementing it here)
    

    I actually lol’d

    And I gotta ask, what insanity drives someone to implement a minecraft server in bash…?

      The insanity that mojang keeps adding shitty mobs to keep us distracted and refuses to aknowlege that multithreading is a thing thats possible.

        Adding multithreading to such a huge project would be a monumental feat. There’s dozens of multithreading jokes, but I like this one most

        Knock knock

        Race condition

        Who’s there?

        I was more astonished about the choice of language than the decision to implement a server. That said, is the problem with lack of multi threading mostly related to scalability or something else?

          Yeah there literally isnt powerfull enough hardware to support more than a few hundred people on a single instance. And world generation really should take better advantage of multiples cores.
