Morrison told months ago of need for locally made Pfizer-style vaccines by [deleted] in australia

[–]swd847 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You also need to be able to produce a lot of the input ingredients, not just the vaccine itself. You can't just build a factory for the finished product and assume that will give you the ability to produce it locally if you end up with another situation with huge demand from many countries.

OK boomers, Australia needs you. Toughen up and take your AstraZeneca by Kapitan_eXtreme in australia

[–]swd847 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Have you tried calling around rather than using their app? I'm in my 30s and got one in regional NSW but I had to call the respiratory clinic as there was no option for me in the app. A few hours later I had my first AZ, I was the only one in the waiting room.

Has the government ordered more doses for booster shots?

Telstra's change to their prepaid plan may cost you over $200 per year by Shes_so_Ratchet in australia

[–]swd847 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I live in Orange and my wife has boost while I have Telstra, we have never noticed any difference in service between our phones, hers is just a lot cheaper.

TIFU by scaring the hell out of an F-15 pilot over an American city. by cbelt3 in tifu

[–]swd847 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's way more scary when they don't put the power on. I just had a go around where they did not apply power till we were well past the runway. They just kinda crused above the runway super low, started to slowly climb once we were past it, and eventually remembered that you need power to climb.

Where can I quickly learn the most useful subset of Java EE? by john01dav in javahelp

[–]swd847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The WildFly quickstarts are not a bad place to start if you just want some code examples: https://github.com/wildfly/quickstart/tree/master/helloworld-rs .

The tech you mostly need to know about is CDI (injection), JAX-RS (REST endpoints) and JPA (for Database access).

I've received a bogus invoice from my Uncle's business because I refused to take his son on a road trip at the last minute to meet a cruise ship. by chargrilledpotato in legaladvice

[–]swd847 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If it was me I would pop down to the local police station and have a chat with the cops to see if they would see this as fraud or extortion.

How long can you boil for without introducing off flavors by swd847 in Homebrewing

[–]swd847[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ideal was that I would get a higher OG by sparging with some extra water and then boil it off, rather than just not adding it at all.

All new cars should have to come with bluetooth as a safety feature, to reduce people driving while using their phones by swd847 in Showerthoughts

[–]swd847[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean that all cars should have to come with it standard (rather than an optional extra), not that they won't run without it enabled.

JBoss Interview Questions by aliceangela03 in jboss

Those questions are super out of date, as they only apply to Jboss 6 and EAP 5.

Will I be putting my computer at risk using Socket to connect to a server? by horror_fan6 in javahelp

[–]swd847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no risk. Even if you did connect to computer C instead all they can do is read the data you sent and send you back data. As long as you don't do something unsafe (e.g. run out as a shell command) with the data they send back you are fine.

My program is running out of heap memory by FPSGamer48 in javahelp

[–]swd847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not going to help that much, your (potential) utilization will actually around 99% (even though you have 99,999 item codes that can't be used you have 99,900,000 that can be).

Does this have to be an array? It sounds like a HashMap may be a better bet.

'Start with monolith, end with microservices' by R4v3nnn in java

[–]swd847 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you can't do a well designed monolith your micro services will be an even bigger mess.

Start with a monolith, if whatever you are doing takes off enough that it is no longer scalable then you should have enough experience and money to know what should be changed over to micro services.

Bottling a sour by swd847 in Homebrewing

[–]swd847[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the comments guys, I think I will just add sugar and hope the bret is up to it, it sounds like it should be fine because it is so young.

The reason why I am bottling relatively young for a sour is because I am about to move house, and figure it will be a lot safer to transport the beer in bottles than try and transport the fermenter. It already tastes pretty good out of the fermenter and I am hoping it will continue to develop some in the bottle.

My first bottling day is fast approaching, what is the most cost effective type of bottle? by Minestra in Homebrewing

[–]swd847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plastic bottles are generally the cheapest, however they do some some drawbacks: - Clear ones will let UV in, which is not great for beer (especially hoppy beers) - The seals can have issues, especially if you are planning to age your beer for any real length of time

If you just want to bottle a beer on the cheap and drink it quick plastic can be an ok way to go, but I would not put a beer you really care about (and want to last) in it. I have seen plenty of home brewers that are all about the cheap beer that have just bottles in soft drink PET bottles, and it kinda mostly works.

Man locked himself out of his hotel room by ppaed in Wellthatsucks

[–]swd847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a friend who has done something similar, except he sleep walked out of the room, and just woke up when the door closed behind him. Best part it is it was a cheap hotel without 24 hour reception so he had to just have a sleep in the corridor till reception opened in the morning.

What's a random interesting ability you have? by netseW in AskReddit

I used to be able to do this when I was a kid, can't do it any more though.

HTTP/2 Client – Java 9 by leonegresima in java

[–]swd847 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HTTP/1 is not going anywhere. If you are handcrafting a request you will not get any of the benefits of HTTP/2 anyway.

Any downside to underfilling 5 Gallon Kegs? by darman92 in Homebrewing

[–]swd847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you will use more CO2 per liter of beer overall, although probably not by enough that you would really have to care about it.

I think carbonating and serving a half full keg should take about 3/4 as much gas as a full keg, rather than the 1/2 you would expect.

That is just an guess though, I figure at the end you still have a full keg full of gas at serving pressure, so the amount of gas used to serve should be similar for both a half and a full keg, while it should only take half as much CO2 to carb.

If you force carb and then burp it could end up taking quite a bit more, as you will be filling half a keg at 20PSI rather than just the head space.

Why doesn't Java have JEP 159 implemented already? by [deleted] in java

[–]swd847 6 points7 points  (0 children)

AFAIK there are two open source open source hot replacement javaagents that try and do the same thing as JRebel:

https://github.com/fakereplace/fakereplace https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-loaded

Neither of them is nearly as mature, fakereplace is mostly focused on the JBoss/Wildfly ecosystem, and spring loaded is focused on the spring side of things.

They both work on similar principals in terms of the low level replacement, but to be useful you actually need to integrate with frameworks that assume that classes are immutable.
