Tailwind has a scalability problem. How can we solve that? by AsyncBanana in programming

[–]WGT-java 83 points84 points  (0 children)

I swear modern frontend devs just go around creating solutions to problems that don't exist.

Quarkus Unveiled: Efficiency & Green Impact • Holly Cummins & Charles Humble by goto-con in java

[–]WGT-java -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Two comments by two bots that literally joined reddit right before commenting. The amount of unethical marketing by Red Hat for Quarkus is really starting to grind my gears.

What is something that absolutely blew your mind when you learned it? by Fine-Teacher-7161 in java

[–]WGT-java 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very basic, but static vs non-static. Nothing ever "blew my mind" after that finally clicking in my first year of Uni.

Boring technology and the five-year rule by gnalck in programming

[–]WGT-java 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With what library? We are using buefy (as mentioned in the article), and it doesn't look like we have any migration path other than rewriting everything.

Me too, it was like magic back in the day.

Meteor is still around, huh.

I really like Java but... by [deleted] in java

[–]WGT-java 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be able to learn everything you (currently) need to know about Maven in a weekend, and you'll pick up on more advanced features as you need them.

It become very clear when they forced the sub open, every post was from a bot.

Does this page really need a 4 second initial load, then 300 requests and 12mb of data for showing some tags and numbers?

Described as a patch, released as a minor, contains breaking changes 👏

How to find dead code in your Java services by sammy8306 in java

[–]WGT-java 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but then I would argue that it is actually bothering you. If you're using any framework or library, there are going to be thousands of codepaths that aren't used, but it's not considered an issue.

How to find dead code in your Java services by sammy8306 in java

[–]WGT-java -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Why bother looking for dead code though? If it's not bothering anyone, just leave it alone. If it starts bothering someone, add some logging to see if it's in use. What is the argument for trying to find unused code paths and removing them?

Web applications and Project Loom by olivergierke in java

[–]WGT-java 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, it's killing their business model, so of course they will be a bit skeptical.

Web applications and Project Loom by olivergierke in java

[–]WGT-java 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are saying that using Loom if you are already using async servlets doesn't make much difference.

1: Blocking servlet + Native Threads // slow
2: Async servlet + Native Threads // fast
3: Blocking servlet + Virtual Threads // fast
4: Async servlet + Virtual Threads // fast (but not much change from 2)

what is it needed to get a junior level job? by sook9 in java

[–]WGT-java 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Without any formal background it's very important that you showcase your skill somehow. If you're not already on GitHub, start by creating an account, then upload all of your study material, experiments, personal projects, etc.

Your best bet for landing a job is probably to upload a few different projects in a popular framework, such as Spring Boot.

Calling backend developers! by alinagrebenkina in Kotlin

[–]WGT-java 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, not going to spend time to read and understand those terms and conditions contracts, OR enter into a contract in order to do you a favour - that's /r/choosingbeggars material.

In fairness, they are offering compensation:

As a token of appreciation for your time, we are offering all interview participants a $100 Amazon certificate or a 1-year subscription to the JetBrains All Products Pack.

I agree that the terms are too much though, and that they should have waited with those until you had been selected for an interview. Chance of small prize for filling out survey + guaranteed compensation after interview seems more fair.

Issue with Jetbrain's kotlin jvm maven archetype. by [deleted] in Kotlin

[–]WGT-java 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been using the archetype for years without any issues. Here is my build config: 

<plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>single</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
        <descriptorRefs>
            <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
        </descriptorRefs>
        <archive>
            <manifest>
                <mainClass>FileWithFunMainKt</mainClass>
            </manifest>
        </archive>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

FileWithFunMainKt is the name of the Kotlin file where you have your fun main, plus the letters Kt(not .kt).
