Good points. People also seem to forget that the JVM's introspection and monitoring capabilities are second to none.

Where do you find cheap, good quality printers? I found Amazon pricing to beat my local Microcenter website.

Genuine question, how is managing cross interacting virtual threads any different or easier than managing interacting threads? I say this and I am greatly looking forward to using Loom in production. It's definitely the correct way to

If you speak to people on the inside, you'd find that they understand it's a big ponzi scheme, but they continue to work in it while making bank.

Key point here: before other people in order to be seen by them We have a similar notion in Islam called Riyaa' (رياء), where not only will the person engaging in it not get any rewards in the Hereafter, but he would be actively puni

It's quite error prone, most golang code is if err != nil { return nil, err } Now of course it's important to read the documentation, but a language with sum types (or exceptions) would have used a separate type to indicate an err

What I found frustrating that there is nothing stopping a function from returning both a non nil value and a non nil error. I've seen weird code that did that and it could have easily resulted in incorrect behavior.

Java is the new Java :) With features like records, virtual threads, pattern matching, sealed types, string templates, and more to come, it's shaping up very nicely.

> Java is the least cross platform language in existence. That's extremely hyperbolic. Try writing a cross OS program in C or C++ and tell me how it goes. #ifdefs everywhere. Running a Java program through maven or gradle is very st

Shouldn't the government be responsible for paying repairs to vehicles that have sustained damages due to potholes? Or do they just take people's taxes for no return?

While I agree that we should have a good social safety net, these cycles should in no way shape or form be normal. Something is obviously fundamentally broken.

Java has relatively recently gotten algebraic types with pattern matching + records. I find myself missing this feature anytime I use a language that doesn't support it. > I don't know what all its wonderful tooling is. Excelle

None of the languages/ecosystems you mentioned have anything resembling the JVM's JFR for continuous profiling. I've seen some commercial offerings, but then (1) they're not free, and (2) you're bound to the provide

Modern Java is much more terse and expressive. > What's weird to me is that other languages have the exact same ability to suffer from this problem, but for whatever reason, they do not. When you search long enough, you'll come

I don't think anyone is arguing that C++ is more difficult to use than Python, and much less safe. The question is how does python stack up to Java or C#? As you can see in this thread and many other discussions on this forum and elsew

GC is not just for memory leaks, but memory safety in general. It also enables several paradigms that are extremely difficult to get right without memory safety. In order to have a proper comparison, you should control for variables that ar

Didn't NASA lose a space orbiter due to mixing up units in the code? A properly written library should not have the issues you're mentioning.

GC was one of the most important and relevant features (if not the most important) that allowed Java to penetrate, and eventually dominate the space where C++ used to be relevant in terms of middleware/business type applications. Thi

You shouldn't compare a Python web stack with a C++ web stack, as C++ and Python target very different use cases. You can compare however with a Java or C# web stack, both of which offer a superior developer experience, as well as a su

I think OP wanted to make a categorical difference between vim-the-editor vs vim-motions. The latter of which are supported in all major IDEs as plugins/extensions.
