Java is far far from the next COBOL. It is still my first choice when I want to choose a technology that will run for the next 20 years with minimal amount of code maintenance.

And if you wrap that inside a form that submit this to a url that respond with status 204, this will work without any js :-)

by olavgg 11y ago
Actually, another way to do this is to create a form with the POST method that respond with status 204(which will not refresh the page). There is still no need to involve the XHR. I still think this solution is neat though.

I use IntelliJ too, and I use static typing and @CompileStatic all the time. I'm not complaining, just being nitpicky. I don't see the point coding Java style with Groovy. And that is in my opinion Groovy's biggest strength,

I wouldn't say I'm stuck on the JVM, I actually prefer building web apps with Grails. Grails may have a small community, but it makes Java web development really sexy. And I write 50% of my Grails code with Java. Groovy is ok, but

This is really interesting! But keep in mind, Varnish is blazing fast if you manage to fit everything in memory by using malloc. Also Varnish is more configurable than the Nginx cache. For example if you need to serve different content on t

You forgot to mention that UUID's hurts JOIN performance. You want to join on 64 bits integers and not on 128 bit UUID's. You can still save the UUID in another column as a unique-id for the purposes you mentioned.

No, you create virtual block devices that needs to be "unlocked" before you can start using ZFS. If you need to scrub the dataset, you need to unlock all the virtual block devices, start ZFS and then run the scrub command. The who

What? Stop lying and spreading false rumors. IntelliJ Idea and PyCharm are rock stable on Linux, they are not slower and if something isn't working then please let Jetbrains know.

You can still scrub a dataset with GELI ( https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?geli%288%29 ) GELI creates a virtual block device that works great with ZFS, you get it all, self-healing, checksumming etc.
