I very much disagree. Yes -- it is important how you rectify those mistakes. But being quick at rectifying mistakes does not yet make your actions professional.

Professionalism, in my opinion, includes taking reasonable precautions to prevent the problem from happening. If you are professional you know what kind of potential problems might happen and you know what are reasonable possible approaches

I would add that seeing somebody "forgetting" NUMA makes it likely there is a lot of other problems. NUMA isn't something you "forget" when you try to test bandwidth limits. It suggest lack of understanding of how t

First of all, there is also copper conductor in it. But the most important is, I think, you are mistaking voltage and current. Resistance will limit current, but it will do nothing to voltage (except for fast transients depending on capacit

They can already identify a person from typing, gait or even how you move your mouse. It is either very dishonest or extremely stupid for an expert to say mm waves can't be used to identify a person.

Also, if some people elect to be locked indoors they are also probably safe from the original deadly virus. I mean the crafted virus would have to be significantly more transmissible than the deadly one it tries to outpace.

This has nothing to do with your statement on how fast we are able to deploy a vaccine vs infect population with a virus. Obviously, vaccine is preferable IF people were getting vaccinated. Also, it is normal for viruses to infect vaccinate

That's why I mentioned populations sabotaging the system. I know this might sound like a radical idea, but vaccinations can only be effective when people are actually getting vaccinated.

Well, a virus can be contagious without symptoms. COVID in particular starts spreading before symptoms suggesting you could have respiratory virus without people even being aware they are infected. And we know most people are not even aware

This game is a passing fad, not a sustainable business. Most current users will get bored and move on to something else. Most of the worth is probably in people that can put up a successful product.

The problem with Clojure is that it is too good. It gives you, the programmer, too much freedom. Most people do not have problems that require so much freedom. Most people do not know what to do with that freedom -- they don't have eno

I wouldn't say that is necessarily fault of Spring (though scope creep might be an important contributor). I think the basic causes are: 1) Because most developers almost never need more than what you can find on Baeldung/Stack*.

In general case you would be right -- Spring does complicate things by hiding some of the actual references. But reality is that most projects use very simple dependency injection rules. Most use just singleton beans and occasionally profil

Then try to not make the modules too small? Sure, if you were ready to make an entire separate application for it it will not be worse when you turn it into one package of a monolith? Also you can build nested structures with modules (like
