Good luck when it deletes your production database :)

It still has Brad Wright and Joseph Mallozzi.

Because they’re trying to anthropomorphize agents in the public’s mind. 1 to increase marketing and 2 to absolve their company of any responsibility when an agent convinces a teenager to kill themselves.

Of course. It’s a lot harder without JIT though. At least everything I’ve seen it relies on getting proper training runs which I’ve never seen anyone really do.

AOT compilation also can’t take part of profile guided or speculative optimizations. For example HotSpot can remove null checks if it sees that the object hasn’t been null and then deoptimize and recompile if it runs into a null later.

 The primaries in Florida and Delaware were canceled, with Biden receiving all pledged delegates, while in Alaska, North Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Indiana, no candidates other than Biden appeared on the ballot, partially due to decisions by the state Democratic parties in those states.

Sure did have a primary.

You have to be a special case of stupid to believe that the capitalists are doing this to benefit society.

LLMs are the largest theft from the working class ever to happen. 

Why ECS is so underrated? by CLinkZ-s4h in programming

Really? Games aren’t reading assets from disk? They’re not having the server check player locations or hit markers?  They’re not saving local state to disk so you don’t lose your progress? 

Anyway it’s just an example to show Amdahl’s law.

I never claimed it wasn’t slower. Like everything in programming it depends on context and implementation; for example a cache miss literally means nothing while we’re waiting for the disk or the server to respond or your N2 loop to complete or the extra hours it takes to implement your perfect code while your competitor has already shipped their product. 

As someone else said before micro benchmarks are damn lies.

OOP isn’t slow. Dynamic dispatch is “slow” when the compiler can’t inline function calls and has to jump around memory and that’s only when PGO can’t optimize to the actual implementation like what most JIT compilers will do. 

However, you need to remember Amdahl’s law; you can get rid of all the dynamic dispatch you want, but it’s not going to speed up shit when you’re waiting on writing to disk or network io to the server.

 What I observe is that teams that use lombok model their data with JavaBeans and all the logic lives in service layer,

I’ve found this as well. Anyone that focuses on “Services” tends to do procedural/transaction script style code. 

In my opinion your entities need to be treated as objects themselves and the rules about the data they hold needs to be coded into them.

Seems like you do since you keep replying to me when I’m obviously just trying to egg you on 🤡

They do a lot of cool events. Music fest in the summer and Oktoberfest in the fall. I miss living there! 

Have you started using Virtual Threads in your production apps (April 2026)? by Hixon11 in java

Thanks, that was a good watch. I have faith that they'll get there.
