Your personal opinion on what "material" means might differ from the court's (and also differs from mine, at least how you phrased it), but I can assure you, a $30bil tax bill is DEFINITELY material. It's a "legal

Calling a four year old account with 10k karma "relatively new" with a winking smiley sounded a bit passive aggressive, but I take it back if you didn't mean it that way.

The word "relatively" is doing some very heavy lifting in that sentence. Instead you could just justify the title without appealing to seniority

Some people write ES2015 code without any ES2016+ transpilers or polyfills (for both good and bad reasons). They might also be using different transpilers with varying settings (such as TypeScript's downlevelIteration, whose default va

Sure, but the reason why browser compatibility is being measured is to quantify that notion of "modern". You can then use that to make your own decisions; if you're working on a high-tech video streaming platform for kids you

Browser support for ES2015 is about 95% [0], while most ES2022 features sit at around 90% [1]. You can find the individual benchmarks on compat-table [2]. Some, but not all of these, are transpilable/polyfillable (refer to compat-table

You can't redirect sites like that with DNS. All of those domains resolve to the IP of a load balancer (probably the same one minus some anycast routing), which then decides whether to show the requested service based on the HTTP Host

As far as I'm aware, Oracle JDK gets fixes that OpenJDK doesn't, and is under a commercial license that's not GPL (even if it's free-as-in-beer under certain circumstances)? Is that wrong?

You don't have to transitively examine callers because you have colored functions. Every awaited call is a scheduling point, and once a function is colored it can't be "doubly colored". You can then still use the mutexes

OpenJDK (maintained by Oracle) is GPL, but Oracle JDK is a different codebase with different features under a commercial license. Oracle's OpenJDK builds are distributed under the GPL, like Microsoft's.

That licensing would be the Oracle JDK. Not OpenJDK like parent was talking about, which is wholly open-source (supporting SE but not EE) and also maintained by Oracle but without LTS. See my other comment about Adoptium vs. OpenJDK vs. Ora
