The goal is to remain competitive with Go. Java is still going to excel in cases when the benefits of JIT and superior GC have the opportunity to show themselves. Graal native gives up the benefits of JIT for fast startup. It might be a use

Not all of it is without choice. I used to be a night owl. I woke around 10am, worked from 11am until 1am or sometimes later. The invariant was that I generally slept between 9-10 hours. I also suffered from seasonal affective disorder and

No formal process is described but to be accountable actions taken should be defensible or explainable and generally they were not. There was also usually no evidence that the reviewer had any basis for making the assessment which led to th

In my experience fighting the Wikipedia bureaucracy to right a wrong decision is like fighting bullshit, you expend 10x the energy you want just to engage in the fight. After being relatively prolific for several years on non-controversial

What is keeping many people on Facebook is FOMO. Every person who quits and leaves, especially publicly, reduces the chance that those remaining will miss something important and the perception that it is an important source of news and inf

Yay, GTA 5 a few days ago and now another AAA game. I've claimed them both but don't actually have a Windows PC to play them on.

Yikes. I am the moderator of r/Metric among other medium sized reddit subs. It turns out there are people who really hate the Metric system and see it as part of a globalist conspiracy. All of the behaviour you describe is familiar, th

I am not convinced that there is enough good content to sustain blogs. Even in the current blogging minimum I see a lot of repetitive self-selling blogs from the usual suspects and a performative aspirational blogs from nobodies. The people

I am working on a novel. It is the third novel/story I have started since 2016. I will probably abandon it before completion but I am practicing and improving my writing. Eventually I hope be able to write a complete novel. I haven&#x2

We've had one for about five years and become "those people" telling everyone about how great it is. I can't imagine not having one. I hope that future North American building codes include a GFCI plug placed near toilet

They had the chance to price data with some relation to their costs and instead chose to squeeze a few customers while providing everyone inferior service. Wireless still needs to have a price associated with usage; usage monopolizes a shar

The Apple Mail client in iOS 13 has terrible half-thought out UX. Open a message you get a bar on the bottom with a trash icon and a reply icon. It is laid out for right handed users only with both icons on the right side. The icons are adj

Until recently they were using old TomTom data for Hawaii. Really old crappy data c. 2006-2011. Hawaii was done early because they wanted their own data.

Nobody has to like everything. I like cooking, I hate doing dishes and cleaning. I know people who hate cooking and enjoy dishes. It is good to have a mix of complementary skills and preferences in a household. It's a hell of a thing w

Another reminder that Oracle got a screaming deal for Sun at a net $5.6 billion in 2009. Either that or Salesforce has more money than brains.
