This doesn’t refute his point, Java the language is separate from the JVM. And those big companies will follow the decreasing Java usage trend due to developer supply and demand. Anecdotally, it seems pretty obvious some of those companies

I'm pretty sure that having kids contributes in the _opposite_ direction to the maintainability of our planet and our species as a whole. Why do you think it's a service to humanity when population growth is a growing problem, con

Let’s take a hashed IP address.There are 4.3B ipv4 addresses. So a few minutes on an old laptop to generate a rainbow table. With decent hardware it would be seconds. The rainbow table could then be used to identify all the IPs you store. I

I really appreciate your comment, I think I will add your log line idea to my project at work! I also wanted to disable lazy fetching of foreign keys, and I wrote something for it, then decided it was too risky to use in production (monkey

I never understood the appeal of decentralized social media platforms until now. How does it make sense for large centralized platforms to police their platform for every little thing that the current social environment finds unacceptable?

I disagree, I think every decision we make is ultimately pleasure seeking (or equivalently, suffering-minimizing). That doesn’t mean we are right about what actions we should perform to optimize our wellbeing, just that how we act necessari

I think the major difference is that losing my house along with all my belongings is much worse than losing just some of my belongings. Also data being exposed publicly can be used nefariously by multiple parties, so is likely worse in most

Well you are making it seem like how well remote work depends on the type of work, which while must be true to an extant, is besides the point the parent was trying to make: that it depends more on the type of person. I agree with the paren

If you like this sort of stuff then you'll like Sam Harris' waking up app and his ideas around consciousness in general. If I didn't know any better I could mistake this commenter as Sam himself!

Thank you. The parent to my comment originally had a snarky "and it only took me 45 seconds" to imply that instead of complaining the person he was replying to should have done what he did and opened a PR instead. Maybe I should r

This blows my mind. If I had to discuss with my teammates every time I changed their code I would be way less productive. Everyone’s a little bit watched to the code they write, but iterative improvements and bumping the quality of the code

I think you’re right when you say it’s a good idea to learn your tools, no matter if the tools provides good or bad UX. In the case of git status, I think the UX is simply bad, as evidenced by the replies and my usage of git. A text update

I recently had to use a bit of Scala for some load-testing, I've never had so much trouble doing something seemingly so trivial; in this case, sending a JSON HTTP request. It was honestly a matter of hours. Pretty humbling experience!

Yeah, you have a good point. My opinions are pretty recently formed on this area so I'm probably off-base, and it was interesting hearing your perspective. Fortunately I'm not a judge! :-)
