I don't like "tc" because it is not self-explanatory and somewhat cryptic to me. The argument on name collisions is valid, although even "toolsconfig" is not 100 % safe.

I've already thought about creating such a folder on my system. I'm happy to learn that I'm not alone :-)

While UUIDs are pretty common, they are by far not the only or superior solution. To be able to easily generate IDs on different nodes in a distributed system something host-specific, pure random, or a mixture of both is needed. To be avoid

Incrementing integers doesn't work well in a distributed system, where the IDs might be generated outside of the database (to have it before the transaction ends, for example).

I already mentioned the Python 2/3 problem, but the other things you listed sound like usual new features, which won't work on older versions, obviously. However, I'd expect Python 3.4 code to run perfectly fine on a Python 3

I don't understand the rating in the table. After the Python 2/3 migration I wouldn't expect compatibility problems for the forseable future. And why should Python not work as well for shell scripts as Perl? Why should Java n

Laser printers are not necessarily cheaper. Business class ink printers have a lower cost/page in many cases.

Maybe the word "boring" scare some people away, but it is a good contrast to exciting new technology anyway. "Mature" would probably the more appropriate term. Many times the exciting stuff is the problem domain itself.

I see a pattern here ... (recent kill of dpreview comes to mind). Maybe entrepreneurs should value freedom and independence more. If the owners of dpreview and Book Depository wouldn't have sold their business to amazon, then maybe bot

If it is actually so terrible, I wonder why no player in the industry (e.g. Microsoft or some other big player) comes up with a better protocol.

I had the same experience. I owned such a small Brother printers 10 years back, but then I wanted colour and bought an Epson printer. This was a big, ugly business printer that wasted a lot of ink and didn't have impressive printing qu

As far as I remember from a post of Brian Goetz changing the existing Optional type is exactly the plan! So, Optional will become a zero-cost abstraction™ in Java. https://cr.openjdk.org/~briangoetz/valhalla/sov&#x

From my experience Kotlin's null handling works better than these external tools. Another point is that also the APIs need some support for it, to be convenient. Kotlin has methods like mapNotNull for example.

Does anyone actually like the policy language of OPA? Maybe I didn't invest enough time in learning, but I found it a terrible experience and the language to be counter intuitive.

The point to tooling was based on the original authors assessments. My own experiences are a bit dated, but I had problems with valid Scala code that wasn't understood by IntelliJ. The reason was probably that this IDE relies on its ow

Maybe Rust is close enough to this ideal imaginary Scala-like language. I'm not a Rust expert, but I really like how Rust combines power with a certain minimalism (not in the Go sense, though). There are, for example, no classes with i

I was a big fan of the Scala language some years ago and really like the improvements made in Scala 3. But I lost my confidence in Scala and the article is more a confirmation of this assessment than something that would give me hope that I

But than I have bad news for you! Hibernate is also an important part of Quarkus. Anyway, neither Spring nor Quarkus force you to use Hibernate.

XML is nowhere near "hip" these days, but I think it is underrated. Yes, a lot of bad things have been done with XML, but the technology itself is just fine and sometimes hated for the wrong reasons. XML is considered overly verbo

Prettier for Java is just terrible! It is super slow and buggy. Use the Google Java Formatter instead.

J2EE? The latest version from J2EE is from 2003. It was called Java EE for some years and it is known as Jakarta EE. Almost everything has changed since 2003. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jakarta_EE

You could use Quarkus as a convenience layer on top of Vert.x.
