I think this is one of the things that Java really solved even though the actual implementation is a bit weird. Being able to generate a war or jar as a released binary is something that would be cool to see in the ruby world.

I see this cited a lot, but honestly I would say the majority of jobs use Spring, and it has been that way for quite a while.

I don't believe this is true. I received these alerts this morning, but as my phone is only on vibrate it did not produce any audio.

I wouldn't say so. The original plan was to have the LCBO handle sales of marijuana as well. The Liberal government that was drafting this plan lost the provincial election and the Conservative government scrapped that it. So it nobody

I'm not saying I disagree but for a lot of businesses (even one with relatively high traffic) it is not unheard of to deploy with almost no tuning of the GC (aside from setting a heap min / max of 2,4,8GB) and have no issues.

Try a Spring Boot app using Gradle as the build tool. Weblogic and all those app servers were a product of a different time. They solve problems that are largely solved other ways now (you could argue for some of their features). Spring Boo

From what I recall, Java didn't switch because it didn't work. I think it switched because the green threads were built on what Solaris supported, and they moved to full OS threading to support Windows, Linux, Mac etc.

I think that was taken into account when the "try with resources" statements were added to Java. As you said it would be nice if the languages could make these situations impossible. I think its a bit of a chicken and egg problem

Java 8 (and 9 more so) bring a lot of changes but more focused on core libraries than the language itself. Not as drastic as the changes JS has seen. C++11 though is quite a bit different. Probably the biggest change being that raw pointers

It is not a requirement for Java it is just standard practice. Also Maven does not allow you to remove packages once they are pushed, I think that is what he meant by Java being unaffected.

I think it is also sometimes a simple barrier to entry to weed out some candidates (think of it as a super simple fizzbuzz). I also see a lot of job postings asking people to decode some string for bonus "points"... 90% of the tim

Java advancement is separate from JVM advancement. Quite a few things (the invokedynamic bytecode for example) were added to the JVM that aren't even used in Java. In fact Oracle has done more recently than Sun did in regards to hostin

This article looks like a fluff piece that is pretty thin on actual research. They talk about how great MaRS is and how much revenue it has generated... but in reality MaRS has been an issue and has had hundreds of millions in bailout money

It doesn't make as much sense for a webpage, but a 304 can be effective for an API. Say you have a resource that needs to be checked periodically, returning a 304 still has the overhead of a tcp connection but not the weight of the pay

My only complaint is that it often explodes when using vim or pagination certain files over SSH. Also ctrl+w by default in cmder closes the tab instead of the bash equivalent, I always have to unbind it.

Comments like "There is only one JVM" leads me to believe that the Java comparison was only pulled in as some type of smear.

We tend to get quite a bit of snow in Canada, and it is pretty cold. I'm not sure if riding in the winter is common elsewhere but where I live in Canada I don't ever see cyclists in the winter.

Slick is the coolest ORM I have ever used. The way it lifts SQL types into Scala code is something I have never seen done elsewhere. That being said it was also one of the hardest libraries for me to learn. The docs are okay but it seemed l

I usually only encrypt var files that contain things like db passwords or something. In our case it made it harder to spot typos in the username for example. I wouldn't encrypt a whole playbook for example.

If you use show instead of edit it doesn't re-encrypt the file. Agreed on the useless diffs however, it makes reviewing pull requests or changes much harder.
