This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

how tf would a missing semicolon result in a http server error
In ASP.NET applications, specifically in ASP.NET Web Forms and ASP.NET MVC (pre-Core), the compilation process is dynamic and happens at runtime if source files like .cshtml, .aspx, and .cs files are present on the server.
ASP.NET uses just-in-time (JIT) compilation for views (.cshtml, .aspx, .ascx, etc.) and sometimes for code-behind files (.cs). When a request hits a page, ASP.NET dynamically compiles these files into temporary assemblies.
If there’s a syntax error, missing semicolon, incorrect type, or any other compilation issue, the process will fail and throw a 500 error.
why would you use asp in an introductory course
even if you have like a student learning platform so they don't have to install anything, surely it would wrap the code that's submitted so it doesn't crash the application
my guess is he had all the boilerplate written, and was using a single line or two of "working code" to show what the technology was capable of
but it's 4chan greentext so it could be fake and gay
Yeah, what he said.
File fails to compile, web server tries to run the file, error.
Nodejs exists. Here's a JS snippet that would throw an exception:
if your server runs user-submitted code server side, that's a paddlin
It never said user code.
This could as well be an intro to php and the server may be set to not show errors and instead just fail.
The lecturer then writes some code, forgets a semicolon and gets a 500.
If the file failed to compile the server wouldn't execute it because a file wouldn't be created. A compile error stops the process, It doesn't result in a corrupted output, since that would be really stupid.
You must have never used the eclipse Java compiler.
If the web server is implemented in any of the languages that require semicolons.
why would you demo a for loop with a web server
For the same reason our OS memory management class was in Java, a language without pointers, because some idiot decided all courses had to be standardized on the same language because the industry says they need people who know that language now.
As one step of building a bigger project that demonstrates something web-ish.
