That is the normal recommendation on the London Underground and that is what they are specifically not doing in this case as an experiment. http://citytransport.info/Digi/P1240646a.jpg

How would the ROV be controlled? Radio won't work. Long cables are problematic in cave environments, they snag, they get pulled by currents.

ReactJS + DropWizard + JDBI (or JOOQ) if you like JAX-RS. ReactJS + Spark framework (or Vert.x 3 or Ratpack) + JDBI if you don't like JAX-RS. I don't like JAX-RS, but it is hard to beat DropWizard if you do.

I consider Jersey to be a good example of what is wrong with Java. Annotation driven APIs don't really lend themselves to composability - sparkframework, vertx or ratpack are much better ways of building REST apis with Java 8.

I think a lot of what you are mentioning comes down to the implementation of CQRS / ES being used not fundamental flaws in the approach. CQRS doesn't force you to build a distributed system. It doesn't make you use eventual c

I am not buffoon but I have used CQRS with event sourcing for a reasonably large system written and maintained by around 10 developers. Additionally I have used event sourcing without CQRS on two other systems. I found the cognitive load to

I have used it for a small amount of production code in a mixed Java / Groovy codebase coded using Intellij and Kotlin version 0.11. Kotlin worked well - clear concise code, no null worries and no cast worries. It is peculiarly refresh

I did lots of programming in Java between 1995 and 2004 when the language had no generics. I did lots of programming in C++ prior to 1995 when it barely had generics. Now I do a fair amount of programming in Go and I don't really miss

Not every country taxes land in that way. I own no land but pay tax for occupying a property, my landlord pays no tax on this property - he may pay some tax on his rental income and will be taxed if the property is sold.
