I got as far as:
Virtual Machines are good because they help language interoperability, which is something we need more of on the server side, but I gave up half way through before I could glean "How" VMs actually help language interoperability, but I think it has something to do with Rhine. Anyone care to read the last half? I'd read the rest, but I need to figure out why my virtual hosts aren't working in Apache on my new Debian server.
- shaunxcode 18y agoI believe his point is that it increases interoperability if all languages sit on top of the JVM.
- blogimus 18y agoRight,I got that part, I thought I was clear that my question was "HOW?" How does the JVM increase interoperability? What mechanism is special about the JVM that is not available in the native machine that makes the JVM more appropriate/better as a platform for language interoperability?
