> it gets less dense as it cools Right!! Thanks for correcting me.

> My take would be that underwater temps cannot get below freezing Yep, density of water changes with temperature—it's the only thing that has that phenomenon—and therefore the col…

Then let's have a similar system for citizens.

You're right; apologies! I set the JVM flag quite some time ago, haha.

I'm the biggest fanboy of Go, but since Java 25 the default garbage collector (ZGC) is very similar to Go's.

You can appreciate Rust and hate `curl | bash` at the same time. Plenty of binaries that are just download and execute.

I was not talking about hotels but about apartments and houses (i.e. for local people).

> Anything else is as bad as using mm:hh... Please tell me that's not a thing.

That's a fair point. I reserved a business hotel in Tokyo for ¥113900 for 7 days during off-season. After conversion, it's still reasonable since you wouldn't find something with t…

Yeah, and the price of rice has increased way more than that. Heat is making me too lazy to look it up so I wonder if it's gotten better in the past year. But Japanese people are v…

Lol, no

I can't wait to see the impact this will have on game prices due to the monopoly Sony is creating on selling PlayStation games. Thanks for the fish but enshittification is only get…

Isn't the Euro digital already? I don't understand... Is the buzzword just flying over my head?

But if it's a subject that interests you, you should participate.

Most people I know do not travel Tokyo - Nara and back. They enjoy taking more time in a place while keeping the door open to day trips of course. If you spend more than 1 night in…

I don't have any metrics in mimd but with GraalVM it's probably a much closer race. It's made by Oracle though...

Software engineering is an important skill to recruit for. Too many times I see "Java Developer"... Like, do they only know Java and are absolutely incompetent when it comes to som…

Yes, but that doesn't determine the technical stack. It only narrows it down. You could just as well use C, C++, Rust or even Go depending on the device the program needs to run on…

Specs are business requirements. Choosing a programming language is not a business requirement; it's a technical one.

From what I calculated, you need to use the Shinkansen every day and for long distances which is not how many tourists spend time in Japan IME. This is not a blanket statement as m…
