Really? I have quite the opposite impression. HN is one of the few places I can come to where intelligent conversations can be found. Sure, sometimes discussions run off the rails into the weeds, but snark is rare, and when conversations st

Thanks for the good wishes. Indeed, it is super complex. It's been much harder than we initially expected. We'd thought maybe two years--it wouldn't be fast, but it would be complete. But things like invokedynamic instruction
