Hopefully Java will support proper values regarding inlining and on-stack allocation for non-primitive types soon, but yes option types are a benefit in Rust as long as you’re not …

Sure, but generics are available in Java as well and compared to Haskell and similar language I rate Rust as closer to Java.

Sure, just reflecting on the “There also tends to be way less of the `EnterpriseJavaBeanFactory`-style code in idiomatic Rust.”

Haven’t really seen anyone trying to use JVM options to get performance benefits without benchmarks for their specific use case the last 10 years or so.

No offense to Tokio and Rust, I really like Rust, but having someone rewriting their app because of performance limitations in their previous language choice, isn’t really someone …

Trolling is fun and all, but I wouldn’t say Rust’s type system that much more advanced than Java’s. The borrow checker definitely helps to catch errors, but I would rate them at ba…

They are not that similar to a struct in C in that they are not just about being a data carrier. So that might be confusing if that is what you expect. Future work is intending to …

Would dependent types help in this case? Add the reference type when creating the type and then you could have the compiler check that the contract holds.

They are still allowed to have police present at the internal border and checking both your id, itinerary and asking questions about your visit as long as it’s not “systematic”.

Sure there is. They have checked my id on about half of the arrivals the last years.

Yeah, having reads rebalancing the tree in a multithreaded subsystem is probably not optimal. Might be that the Splay-trees have outstayed their welcome :) FreeBSD’s tree.h used to…

I believe Splay trees are usually mentioned as an alternative.

I would like to have the result type for this, like in Rust: enum Result { Ok(T), Err(E), }

Java 9 was a huge roadblock for upgrading since a lot of libraries were using internal apis and that mess took a few years longer that it should have. Now the only supported Java v…

Java 13 was released 2 months ago.

I’m sure there are some languages without legacy in their stdlib, but I still haven’t seen one.

Sexier name for sure. We do still call the age before the current Nordic states were established the age of Vikings in Sweden. The whole notion of Vikings being stupid and naive so…

Inefficient Linux cadvisor implementation causes unexpected latency. Also this affects buzzword compatible technologies.

Unfortunately that seems to be common. Artifactory for example has similar requirements. Guessing that running full free text search and analysis on the artifacts are the main culp…

Cheap shovels and expensive ladders.

As long as profit is taxed in the country the sale is made, nobody would complain. Now it’s just transferring money and making sure to pay the taxes in the most beneficial country.…

Young people still have Instagram, so I guess Instadate would have been better :)

Data, sure. Lose the volume, no.

If their whole business model is selling personal data, then 4% is clearly just a cost of running their business.
