Typical reaction when a new #Java is released.

There are two categories of speakers:
– you better listen to them on 2x
– you better listen to them on 0.5x

When buying a new iPhone for several thousand $, you get:
– slightly better photos
– slightly better battery life (it depends)
– AND +100500 TO YOUR REPUTATION/CARMA!

... otherwise all the same...

Interesting. In a search for a password I opened Chrome password manager and noticed I have so many accounts from services I don't use.
I was even able to log in to some of them and delete them.
But about 40% do not provide delete account functionality.

I see that so many people are using X/MD/BS to justify their poor life decisions, making the situation even worse :)

I just love runways. All kinds of them.

When you are trying to use a legacy undocumented API and wonder why it doesn't work...

.@intel + @nvidia == cool?

Looks like it's going to be a fun day for the Java community :)

Happy Programmer's Day 💻

Dear #firefox is this real or am I hacked???

Friday wisdom:
If your architect says: we don't need documentation, the project is opesource, everybody can read the code and understand how to use it...
...then your product is screwed
...and even ChatGPT won't help either you or your customers!

After some of my Bulgarian friends were thrown away from FB and Google by the new AI moderators, I have a question:
Does your country have alternatives for social networks, media streaming, payment, navigation and maps services etc?

Why don't you like `NullPointerException`?

What is your fav talk from JavaOne 2025?
... and why?

Is there a decent Grammarly alternative which does not require any "Sign-ins" or authentications? Thanks in advance!
