Yes especially in an education setting where the level of overhead of Maven/Gradle for a student just learning to program is too high.

Virtual Threads are actually in their second preview which means it might not be years before we see them standard in the JDK.

True but beyond hobby projects this becomes a double-edged sword that swings back at you.

Sure, but you could refer to the lineage of a dozen languages. Most of the world runs Java and evolving it takes care and consideration not to alienate a massive user base and ensuring that it evolves in the right way, not quick responses t

One of the goals of Project Amber [1][2] is to move the language towards a more data-oriented programming model. With Records, patterns, sealed classes, etc., it should feel much less verbose over time. And unrelated to your concern but add

There's a release every 6 months which have been packed with great stuff, and don't forget half the world's economy still runs on Java.

For motivation and to see who's involved there are a few other places you can go such as amber-dev [1] and his PR's [2]. [1] https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/amber-dev/2023-January/th... [2] http

RIP. I spent countless hours talking to that damn parrot.

Huh. Charge 25-40 cents/kWh, give back 5-8 cents. And that's not counting their own taxes and fees that allegedly go to improving their aging infrastructure that they can't fix with the profits they make.

For Java developers check out the Inside Java Podcast where we interview the folks working on the Java Platform for an inside look at important innovations (eg Loom, Panama, Amber, JavaFX, secure coding guidelines, contributing to OpenJDK,

The operative word is perspective. He represents the perspective of the Java Platform Group where most of the project leads and key developers work (see my comment below). We certainly get that many in the industry see LTS releases as somet

And the projects that tend to be what pushes the platform forward are mostly led by folks at Oracle: Amber (Brian), Loom (Ron), Panama (Maurizio), Valhalla (Brian), Leyden (Mark), etc.

One thing to keep in mind that I learned the hard way with my now wife is a startup is very much like a mistress. It not only takes your time away, but steals a lot of your emotional energy. Learn and deal with this early and often.

Billions of people use the service for "free". As long as everyone knows they are what's for sale, the rest makes sense. Any company of this size is going to sway discourse so it's time to accept that. I for one do not a

Although I largely disagree with your statement that a million people died because of "assholes", I think your broader meta-point is that we're moving into a brave new world of realtime instant information and that is having

Loom is the talk of the town (for great reasons!), but let's not forget about Project Amber and Record Patterns [1] ... there's an arc of features moving the platform towards a data-oriented programming model. Brian Goetz talks ab

I wasn't at Sun but am on the Java team now at Oracle. I'm constantly amazed by the inventor culture that Sun had, the people who came from there, and the legacy it has produced, but we all know how the business ended. That's
