Because software devs have the weeks/months to learn vulkan every time they want to use a GUI for their job, or to learn compiler design whenever they wanna use java for their job

Not every time, just the first time. But yes. Devs should stop being so lazy

compiler design whenever they wanna use java for their job

Every dev should at least know the basics of language design and compiler design, yes. Again, you also only have to learn it once

The best developers are the laziest.

I'd take a dev slowly using a library with a one liner than a noob writing 500 lines of code doing the same thing any day.

That's how you end up with the unmaintainable state that enterprise software is currently in. "Just Works" mentality is a cancer
