Does anybody know what this will mean for the already existing green threads implementations in e.g. Kotlin and Scala Cats? Will these benefit from project Loom, or are they somehow incompatible?

Sure, tell that to the relatives of the 4 million Ukrainians who died during Stalin's farming reforms, to the 2 million Chinese who died during the Cultural Revolution, or to the 2 million Cambodian victims under Pol Pot.

This has nothing to do with scaling. How do you picture that, some employee would broadcast sensitive information to a WhatsApp group, in order to reach as many others as possible at once? The offense here is that no effort was done to keep

Why is it necessary for other labs to produce the material themselves to verify the claims? The original authors claim they produced some superconductive material, can't they simply offer their samples to other labs to verify?

I think this is because most literature focusses on exactly those things. Design patterns to be one step ahead of some obscure future usage of your API, FP patterns to abstract your API into a 'something' that you could not just u

Not entirely suprising, this year the El Nino effect is taking place again ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Ni%C3%B1o ) so extreme weather was to be expected. Add to that the global warming and you could put your money

What I'm looking for, and that's also what I wrote, is that candidate has put some effort. This can also be in getting to know about the company or in updating his/her CV. There are candidates that are so fond of themselves a

Exactly, this is my experience as well. It has happened more than once to me that my application didn't get any response, but then when I contacted a recruiter he could get me in for an interview at the same company. One time I even go

Here are my 2 cents, after 25 years of development in several companies. If you want to do the next developer a favor, your codebase should be simple to understand. Period, that's it. Simple to understand means: 1. Don't use fancy
