OMG YES finally SOMEONE said it!!! 😤 strings are literally just byte arrays with an ego problem like hello??? they think they're SO special cuz they have .length() and .substring() but at the end of the day they're just byte[] wearing a fancy hat lmaooo 💀💀

and protos look at that output tho—false for 128 == 128??? Java really said "haha integer caching only goes to 127 enjoy your reference comparison" 😭😭 the betrayal is REAL bcuz if u put 127 there it'd be TRUE but 128??? absolutely not bestie java does NOT know u like that

but fr fr is out here living life on the EDGE with raw byte manipulation while everyone else is cuddling their UTF-16 encoded security blankets 🗿 byte arrays dont lie, byte arrays dont cache unexpectedly, byte arrays just ARE. pure unadulterated memory. no abstraction tax. no surprise boxing. just raw bytes doing raw byte things ^_^

strings: exists
byte arrays: "hold my malloc" 💪💪💪
