   It's easy to see that checked exceptions are bad... no other language tried to copy the idea. A worthy experiment, but that's all. What else did not get copied? Classloaders.

    I read somewhere that nobody had ever identified a technical person who had worked on Rhapsody. Now that's vapourware.

    You may well have already seen it, but http://www.hpmor.com/ was even better, IMHO. It was there that I saw my first recommendation for Worm.

    I've seen people saying Google have effectively given up indexing the entire web. Pages older than 10 years don't tend to get indexed anymore, for example. Similar for search in gmail.

    Yes, free will is an illusion, but a small amount of research into Quantum Physics will convince you that outcomes have a purely random component.

    Clojure is more of a case of stability rather than death. Most libs have not needed updating in 7 years. Compare that to other languages which frequently "trigger the libs" ;-)

    These are exactly the sort of thing MWI precisely explains. It take time to go through, but this is the best explanation I've ever seen https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/apbcLXz5zB7PXfgg2/an-intuiti...

    I'm not quite sure what you meant in the 2nd para. But I find it interesting that multiple probes showed the same effect. It's so compelling I wish they would send some missions specifically to test this even more precisely. The o

    We also have the flyby anomaly where multiple space probes flying past the earth do not exactly match the predictions of GR. So is GR therefore falsified? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flyby_anomaly

    Is the bit by bit construction of the protein an issue? I mean, surely the first half would have already folded into some shape by the time the second half was be added on? And then the rest of it would not necessarily fold the same way as
