That's why the JVM (and platforms with a similar philosophy), to me, is the best runtime there can be. Sure, there's fancy state-of-the-art stuff being integrated into it; but the most compelling feature is the continuing commitme

What kind of time are we talking about, 10 seconds or 3-4 minutes? Or very short, but everything will be painfully slow?

AWS RDS for PostgresSQL supports many popular extensions [1]. I wonder if these are activated here or will be in time. One of pg's unfair advantage is its ecosystem. I have user-triggered batch processing jobs that need PostGIS; Aurora

Java, or projects in Java? Java pretty much has to, in order to preserve the most important feature a runtime can have: backwards compatibility. Projects in Java are cursed from the beginning: the language has great constructs for boxing co

To me, the news is more that they are open-sourcing the hardware acceleration that goes with it. These sort of initiatives should be loudly celebrated; and I think they will be more common as the end of Moore's law progresses, and as h

Much thanks. In your example, you mean the indices are shrunk if you know the size of the table? I knew about specialization and deopt, but never suspected the principle could be applied to vertex indices in the GPU.

It'd be great if IBM and Google could contribute that into OpenJDK. Would that collide with project Panama [1] currently under way? (Or maybe that's a goal of the project?). Also, wasn't that the goal of Azul's ObjectLa

While I sort of subscribe to the content of the article, I don't think the (click-baity) title has any wisdom in it. Yes, software engineers would do wonders with more creative freedom. But not in a "move over" way. There is

Kafka's writings do have some very peculiar themes, though. I don't know about other countries, but in France calling a process or an organization "Kafkaïan" is a big pejorative. It evokes incapacitating, mind-numbing co

The bland, low diversity of the frontpage. If HN were to release the votes dataset to trustworthy AI/ML partners, wonders could be extracted from that. I'm sure I'd be way less interested in what the mob wants to hear about,
