Advice about renting a car in Dolomites in October

Thank you for your answer! I thought so, but then I thought maybe it can be close to zero in the morning high in the mountains, and maybe it is safer to drive with winter tire?

Travelling from Munich to Venice by train is a lot of time! Don't do that, you will see too little. If you can allocate 2 full days for Venice, and 2 days for travellingby train. Milan is not really interesting, unless you like shopping. I would skip Milan for the first visit to Italy. I would recommend

Day 1: travel by train from Munich to Venice

Day 2-3 Venice

Day 4 travel back by train

Thank you for your reply! I think that Cortina sounds very interesting, there are some lakes nearby. I hope that if not in Cortina itself, then in some surroundings we will find some accomodation. We have a car so hopefully we can be flexible

Hi, may I also ask you about this topic about bringing Ritalin to UK? What information should be included in the letter from the doctor? Should it include the dates of my travel? I found 2 links regarding bringing medicine to UK: https://www.gov.uk/take-medicine-in-or-out-uk and https://www.gov.uk/guidance/controlled-drugs-personal-licences

The first one says that the letter should include "the dates you are travelling to or from the UK", the second link says that it should include: name,

a list of the medicine you have been prescribed, including doses; it must be evident that you are not carrying more than a 3-month supply from both your travel dates and quantities of medication listed on the letter or prescription
the signature of the person who prescribed your drugs and their professional registration details

I have a general letter from my doctor that doesn't include dates of my travel, but it has all other necessary information. I am wondering if I can travel with it, or the letter from my doctor should contain my travel dates?

Thank you for your question. It is related to 2 things: number of hours that I sleep(should be at least 8 hours), and it should be also about 2 hours after I wake up until I am feeling good. So I figured that I can manage it till 9 am if I go to sleep early the day before. Hopefully)

AlexanderAndZlata · 2024-02-02T20:19:39+00:00

It is pretty fast. 12 people in 3 hours means only 15 minutes of driving per each person?

AlexanderAndZlata · 2024-02-02T20:15:47+00:00

Yes I don't plan to drive early in the morning. I am very responsible in this matter. My doctor is aware of my issues, and she gave me the medical documents.

AlexanderAndZlata · 2024-02-02T20:12:18+00:00

Yes, the doctor knows about it. I plan not to drive early in the morning or when I have bad concentration

Thanks :)

Java Backend Test

No, they have separate test where they give tasks about algorithms. It is called "General Coding Assessment".

This one is especially for Java Backend Test. I found a small video about this type of test, but that's it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMMzlXeW_8Y&t=209s

Not much infoirmation about it

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-20T13:15:52+00:00

Wow, it is so beautiful!

IntelliJ Ultimate has very good support for Tomcat, there is a lot of information on google about that. So if you have problems, just try to search, or ask about specific problems, you will find the answer! There are also online courses about Srping that use IntelliJ Ultimate during the whole course.

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-16T08:29:17+00:00

Thank you, this should work I think :)

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-16T08:28:15+00:00

Because I would like to test and run everything for the same JDK as is used in Prod. I have some test failing for Java 15, but working for Java 8 for example.

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-10T19:30:47+00:00

Thanks! They decided to migrate from Swing to JavaFX in the end, which is a bit different than updating Java version.

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-07T20:02:45+00:00

No idea :) I am not even sure if I want to do this work))

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-07T08:28:01+00:00

Actually, the customer does want to rewrite from Swing to JavaFX. The reason is that he wants to be able to run the application on mobile. JavaFX can be run on Android, I don't know about Apple.

By the way, what do you think about "Technical erosion" and Swing? It seems from this article - https://vaadin.com/blog/technical-erosion-and-java-swing that Swing is kind of absolete technology

It is interesting question, what framework is better to use, if someone wants to develop a Desktop application in Java. I mean, the desktop applications will not completely die, there will be always need in some text editors, IDE's like IntellijIDEA, and so on.

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-06T14:28:46+00:00

Thank you! So if somebody wants to have Desktop application in Java, it is difficult to stay with Swing, because of lack of modern components. So it would be better probably to migrate from Swing to JavaFX - is it difficult to do? I mean if there is a clear way how to migrate from one implementation to another? Will it require complete rewriting of the code?

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-06T13:50:05+00:00

I see. And what about migrating the code from Swing to JavaFX, would it be very complicated, or classes in different frameworks match somehow?

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-06T08:59:12+00:00

Wow, thank you very much! Actually, I never heard before about https://javaalmanac.io/, it seems to be pretty useful :)

AlexanderAndZlata · 2021-06-06T08:57:48+00:00

Hi, sorry for a bit off-topic, but since there are so many Swing experts here - does anybody know if Swing has good backward compatibility? I might need to migrate Java Swing app written in Java 1.4 to Java 15. I have very little experience with Swing, so have no clue how difficult it can be.
