TDD only works in conjunction with thorough peer reviews. Case in point: at my place of work, code and tests written by an intern can go through literally dozens of iterations before the check-in gets authorized, and even the senior enginee

Excelsior guy here. Overall, I would say that AOT suddenly becoming kosher helps our business way more than competition hurts it. Then, "JDK9 has AOT out of the box" is a bit of exaggeration. Oracle AOT is only available for Linux

Author here. Kindly (suggest where to) cross-post - I think it's important for the health of our industry that freeware authors and open source enthusiasts keep getting rewarded for their efforts. Thank you.

Low/zero cost is a benefit only if everything else is equal. Eclipse and Netbeans are free, yet people pay for IntelliJ IDEA. We use an expensive commercial GUI testing product because all the free and cheaper alternatives sucked big t
