What sort of industry/use cases are we talking here? There is business critical and mission critical and if your experience is in network applications as your next paragraph seems to imply then no offence, but you have never worked with critical systems where an nondeterministic GC pause can send billions worth of metal into the sun or kill people.
- EdwardDiego 5y agoUm, how did you derive from this conversation that the "outages" in question were about space missions failing? Curious, and a tad confused.
- zepolen 5y agoThe parent of this thread being is about systems languages and how GC languages are rarely the right tool. Then your comment about having experience that the GC doesn't really matter in critical environments, which I personally find not to be true at all but am interested in which domain your comment is based on. So please answer the original question.
