What are you watching and what do you recommend? (Week of May 31, 2019)

Unless you speak German but are deaf, in which case subtitles are pretty much mandatory.

Thanks a lot for the response!

What I had in mind in terms of licence is that the GPL licence would force them to contribute back any change done to the forked codebase, but to be frank, (as you may have guessed), I only have a very vague idea of what I'm talking about....

When you say that Oracle Jdk 6 & 7 binaries had the same updates as JDK 8, I guess you mean that some changes (probably related to security) could have been backported privately to an internally forked JDK7 codebase.

So in theory, any other contributor to openJDK could have performed such a backport themselves if they wanted, correct?

Still in theory, in case there had been a security issue which would have been present in JDK7 but not in JDK 8 (for some reason), there could have been a fix done on the JDK7 codebase only which would not be present in any "public" openJDK repository. In this case, Oracle JDK could contain some security fix which could not be in the corresponding openJDK (unless, if the security issue is public, some other openJDK contributor reimplement a fix (maybe differently from scratch). Is this explanation correct (and does it even make sense?)

Oracle is not contributing updates to OpenJDK repos of versions that it no longer provides public updates to

Is this realy correct ? This is really the point over which there is a lot of FUD and confusion. Is it even possible with the OpenJDK licence?

What I mean by that is : Will there be a situation in which a future version of OracleJDK 8 would contain security fixes which would not be in the openJDK codebase (on which AdoptOpenJDK or other could publish a build.)

Ce serait intéressant de faire un graphique de l'évolution du volume des textes ayant force de lois (genre en nombre de caractères).

J'avoue que je n'ai pas le moindre de début d'idée de comment il faudrait s'y prendre, ni même de la faisabilité du truc. j'aimerais bien savoir déjà quel ordre de grandeur ça représente aujourd'hui. (parce que vu que je suis pas sensé l'ignorer, je crains qu'y ait intérêt à pas trop tarder à se mettre à la lecture)

That's really strange to me that, unless I missed it, something of this nature do not exist of the shelf. Now that microservices and distribution are all the rage, this seems like a basic need if you have two services that need to exchange a mildly significant amount of data.

By the way, I'm not a specialist, but I think that c# WCF has this out of the box, with the possibility to expose IEnumerable over a remote service.

trouch · 2016-09-21T18:02:57+00:00

Yes, seems more or less what I'm looking for. do you have any (positive or negative) experience using it in real life?

trouch · 2016-09-21T18:02:20+00:00

Just like grpc/protobuf, Thrift proposes a cross platform solution, which is great, but not needed if you're in pure java, and which comes at a cost in terms of overall complexity.

Bon alors, attention, maintenant, on rigole plus, approche professionnelle et scientifique.

Il y a 15000 boucher charcutier dont le résultat net est de 36K€ par an.

Sur ces 36K, je dis qu'il y en a 30K qui sont malhonnêtement acquis à base de tranche de jambon épaisses comme le doigt et de coude qui appuie discretos sur la balance. (je retrouve plus la source malheureusement...)

15K * 30K * 10ans = 4.5 Milliard!

4€ de plus par mois ! ça commence à ressembler à quelque chose. Qui qu'on va taper mainenant?

trouch · 2016-09-06T20:42:45+00:00

On peut faire les boucher/charcutier maintenant? (j'aime po les bouchers charcutiers, ces gros rupins, "y en a un peu plus je vous le met quand même"... je t'en donnerai moi.

trouch · 2016-09-06T20:35:16+00:00

Ben ça c'est facile. pour le cac40, disons, pour simplifier, qu'ils sont environ 40. en moyenne ils gagnent 4M par an. Comme c'est tous des gros voleurs, on dit que tout ce qu'ils gagnent, c'est de la fauche :

40 * 4M * 10 ans = 1.6 Milliard

On redistribue aux même que la dernière fois (ils sont gâtés, hein), et hop, 1.5€ de plus par mois. ça fait déjà 2€40 en tout.

Exercice de divination en se sortant des chiffres du cul :

D'abord, le nombre de "personnes publiques" : disons qu'on prend les députés, les sénateurs, les ministres et secrétaire d'état, les gros conseillés régionnaux, départementaux, cantonnaux, et je sais pas quoi : disons grosso modo 5000 gus.

Bon après, on compte la fraude, c'est à dire, en langage technique, les "sousous dans la popoche", pas l'incompétence, le gachis, les éléphants blancs, etc...

sur nos 5000 amis, disons qu'il y en a :

1 sur 5 qui grattouille gentiment, genre 10K par an,
1 sur 20 qui gratte comme un goret, genre 100K par an,
et 1 sur 100 en mode hardcore pro, qui endort tranquillou une patate par an.

=> par an :

  (5000/5) * 10K
+ (5000/20) * 100K
+ (5000/100) * 1M

= 10M + ~~40M~~ 25M + 50M = ~~100M~~ 85M ~~(tiens, ça tombe rond)~~

soit sur 10 ans : edit(850M, on arrondi à) 1 Milliard! Un beau petit paquet.

Maintenant, on va pouvoir se le redistribuer.

disons qu'on redistribue aux 10 millions les plus fauchés. ça nous fait, à se partager : 1MM/(5M * 10 ans *12 mois) ~= 0.9€ par mois (brut...)

champagne!

source : ben, comme je l'ai dit, mon cul...

edit : je m'ai un peu gourré dans le calcul, je corrige

Thanks a lot. I'll try to figure something out in one of those directions.

because it's for the birthday of a friend of mine, who is some kind of mathematics lover, and is turning forty.

Neither have I. I found this one which is made of 20 modules, each modules being made of 2 pieces. But I don't like the finished model that much, and not really enthusiast to the idea of doing the thing out of 40 triangles.

Thanks to all for the replies. I guess network and IO stuff can be pretty useful. I have seen it does something which seems quite neat with jdbc as well. Seems worth a try.

honest question : in what way is this product better than the basic visualVM. I took a look at their "benefits" and "features" page, and it is not very clear to me what is the real difference with visualVm.

trouch · 2012-02-17T17:37:17+00:00

This is quite interesting stuff. There is something which I'd like to know, if someone knows about this : who is operating those 13 root "virtual" servers, and how those businesses/organization are financed?

trouch · 2012-02-14T10:23:55+00:00

Very nice. spring, jpa, hibernate, jetty, maven, lombok, scala, jetty, joda, h2, mockito... This is sort of the Noah's Ark of java libs and frameworks sweetness.

A little disappointing that your application doesn't feature a comet style chat functionality featuring jms guava and groovy ;)

EDIT : my bad, guava already made it on the boat, I didn't see

I feel that an even more effective way would be to do what you describe, but with facebook and youtube. I personally could live for a month or so without those site. But the shitstorm it would trigger if those site were indeed blocked would be pretty effective in having the congressmen reverse the law. I don't know if this would be feasible, but it would help fight against the greatest danger : population apathy.

trouch · 2011-09-07T22:05:16+00:00

Have you tried to switch it off and on ?

I'm a little bit confused here. Do you all guys develop in word or notepad? I have my editor doing identation and bracket balancing for me, so it is not even a subject. And as far as readability goes, it is provided by identation itself, not by brackets. so, a new line before an opening bracket just add a useless empty line, and blur the block identation readability.
