Which Java? Which JVM? Which libraries, etc.? JDK 8 bears little resemblance to JDK 2. The latest JVM bears little resemblance to the first ones. Java is old. It is a huge ecosystem with lots of warts and cruft. There is a lot of good stuff, however, in that ecosystem and it's so good that it runs a huge portion of the Internet. So, some good criticisms but too much missing the forest for the trees.
Doesn't sbt still use Ivy under the covers? I know Gradle used to but maybe not anymore. In any event, Ant is still an active project and Ivy is it's dep system.
Damn - I'm speechless. What the heck is going on in Cupertino? The Airport Extreme is THE best wireless router you can buy. Also, it has the integrated Time Capsule which is incredible
The tone and sarcasm of this video aside, the guy makes strong arguments that the Hyperloop cannot work technically. Worth watching as he makes good arguments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNFesa01llk
edit: actually it can work technically, but it's not practical at all
The 16GB limit is the real issue for me personally. There are plenty of Windows/Unix laptops that can do 32GB or more so all the excuses I've been hearing are ludicrous.
I was totally prepared to buy one of these new MBPs and now I likely won't. Spec wise these are not much better than last year's model. Frankly I don't care too much about the ribbon-bar thing. What I really needed, as a developer, was 32GB. Damn.
How can you improve on perfection? I'm dubious. I've had mine for over 15 years and will never part with it. I had it refurbished 3 years ago and it's still great. It made a huge difference in my life. I had back problems and severe repetitive stress problems. The chair makes a huge difference for me. In particular, it allows me to have a tilting-forward position. Also, the mesh is extremely comfortable without trapping heat. It's pure genius.
I've never seen so much question begging in my life. Maybe, just maybe, Thiel doesn't believe the charges against Trump. Additionally, the hypocrisy is appalling. People gladly write checks to Hillary Clinton who over the past 30+ years has defended, provided cover and attacked the accusers of her husband who is in the exact same league as Donald Trump.
More appropriately, don't implement these incredibly difficult protocols yourself - unless it's an exercise. Use one of the well maintained, widely used implementations.
This is great. The Digital Nomad future is upon us. I've been doing it for 3 years and it's wonderful. Live where you want. Get out of the Silicon Valley rat race.
It worked for me. I'm a true digital nomad. I moved out of the US and work whatever hours I want totally remotely. I firmly believe this is the future. Maybe it's taking longer than anticipated but it _is_ happening more and more. Just search "digital nomad" for a taste.
What's the worst condition (if you don't mind saying) you've had where you had to use the Canadian system? Generally, socialized medicine works fine for routine care but badly for catastrophic (i.e. expensive) care.
