The question was about Java. I, for example, use both Java and Kotlin in my project.

Multiplattform, tons of libs and tools, statically compiled, supported by major IDEs, mature dependency management (maven, gradle), backed up a major player (Oracle). I’m sure there’s more.

Plenty of people that don’t and won’t agree to work remotely. Not to mention that working from home hardly appeals to extroverts.

Hmm, can’t relate to that and I think I’m exactly that category given that I also live abroad. If anything, I’ve never been more convinced of the uselessness of nationality.

Definitely not worthless. Also OP makes a good point at the end: > The thing is that to be able to tell the different takes effort in educating yourself.

Good? Is it a good thing to sell caffeine-laden energy drinks to kids & teenagers? Good and bad aren’t the steering properties of the market. Demand is. Demand can also be artificially created, hence the github commits that potential em

But I don’t need it. If I really needed it, maybe I would buy it.

But is it what the market wants, though? If customers are paying, then I think the answer is obvious.

With EU’s declining population growth, UBI may very well be the way out of impossible retirement plans in the future. Something that IMO millennials in the EU will face sooner or later. I don’t claim to know all the economic implications of

I don't find this a fair thing to say. Eclipse was/is de facto the standard IDE for Java and JavaEE development, not to mention it was/is widely used as an IDE for C development. You can still find prebuilt packages [0] that

I read “Effective Go”[0], but what really helps me is browsing through the sources of various Go projects and libs in Github. I also keep a tab of Go’s packages docs open [1]. And of course there’s StackOverflow. In general I prefer learnin

I’ve started getting into Go. Looks good so far. Working on a side project, which is my best way to get into something new.

A bit slow when searching, also there seems to be an issue with umlaut letters. But keep it up!

It depends on how the app is written I guess. For example, make a bookmark of this demo PWA app on your homescreen https://airhorner.com . Notice that it opens itself in a full screen mode, no safari controls are shown.

Thanks, that was pretty informative. We have a bunch of one time use standard surgical masks at home. I wonder if I can just put them in a bag of salt after single use.

Wow, this was the ELI5 article that worked for me. Now I finally get it for the context of homescreen apps.

AOT is in the making [0]. I also think Godot will win in the long run. Unity is a bloated mess. No sponsorship can fix that. 0 - https://godotengine.org/article/csharp-wasm-aot

Why 7 days though? Why not 30 or 3? What are Apple basing this number on?

Having used Kotlin, I’m now actively switching to Go. I find it much more enjoyable to write. But this is also highly personal opinion. I feel seriously lost in Kotlin’s documentation. Go is a joy to me.

Not that many radical changes since Java 8 that I can think of. The language stays quite coherent so far. I find myself using “var” and switch with strings pretty often with Java 11.

Not to be picky, but those stats may be different for people that get intoxicated on a regular basis. Much like OP suggests.

It's not always because of development reasons. There are administrators at the customer's side that favor everything with LTS in its name, because of security fixes and support. We are selling on-premises products. If this was a

Yeah, although depending on what you’re working on, you’d probably be interested mainly in the LTS releases. We’re bundling an OpenJDK 11 with our product and while I’ll definitely play around with v14, I think we’ll only upgrade once v17 L
