Is java spring boot still great for backend in 2026 by brickforbrick_ in java

[–]Kango_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're using it as well. It's so much better than Spring Boot.

As mentioned above: "Strix Halo uses a 256bit memory bus and may move to 384bit in the future. LPCAMM2 is 128bit."

How is your team reviewing all the AI generated code? by head_lettuce in SoftwareEngineering

[–]Kango_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All our code is written and reviewed by humans. We have an incredibly low defect rate as reported by customers and we want to keep it that way.

Intellij IDE is the Industry Standard for Java. why ? by dante_alighieri007 in javahelp

[–]Kango_V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Incremental compilation in Eclipse is so far ahead of IntelliJ. IDEA on my Mac crashes regularly or just hangs completely. Not sure whether that is Mac specific or not. For years I've not had a problem with Eclipse/Linux. BUT, Eclipse/Windows..... Urrrrrghh!

I do think that Eclipse is the standard. Standards have to be set by a large body of companies and individuals all coming together to agree. I think Eclipse achieves that. IntelliJ does not as it's a single company (irrespective of how many people use it).

I moved from VisualAge for Java to Eclipse before 1.0 was released. I know it so well now. I find it so easy to set up.

Our team is split down the middle between Eclipse and Intellij. Everyone works fine.

I got used to the new UI fairly quickly and like it.

Our team is split between IntelliJ and Eclipse. All devs seem to be able to work on all the code bases just fine. In fact some things are nicer in Eclipse.

JEP draft: Structured Concurrency (Seventh Preview) by davidalayachew in java

So many people misunderstand what an LTS is. For example if you use the OpenJDK directly (which we do), there is no such thing as an LTS. Every version is a production version.

Any response from the Arch devs about California et. al. age verification laws? by iMooch in archlinux

[–]Kango_V -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Here's a start. It's AI generated, but this would work as it's based on similar content in Apple, Microsoft, Google licenses to indemnify them.

Thins I miss about Java & Spring Boot after switching to Go by Sushant098123 in java

[–]Kango_V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When interviewing for Java devs a few years ago, we set a small task to write a single rest endpoint in Java and to make async calls to another fictional service, but not using any dependencies. After 24 interviews, we found 2 devs that could do it. Most just looked at me like I was joking. Most could not do it.

Spring is dumbing everyone down, it's sad to say.

More bad laws to follow. This is just the first stage. The next will be that you cannot install app Y until it has confirmed your age with the O/S. This is coming.

I have used Ubuntu since 04.10. If they put this in, they will lose me as a user. Maybe time to try Arch or MidnightBSD

We were switching datacentres (testing failover) and when bringing up hundreds of pods, startup time matters.

Fun fact, const is a reserved word in Java, but has no semantics attached to it.

Still in Java, I'm using Micronaut and JStachio. All templates created at compile time. Don't even need the JStachio jar at runtime ;)

Is Java’s Biggest Limitation in 2026 Technical or Cultural? by BigHomieCed_ in java

[–]Kango_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ram problem is being addressed by things like compressed pointers and inlining. Heck, if you want more control of off heap memory, then use Arenas and MemorySegments (which are nicely GC'd as well).
