There's a new version of Head First Java that came out this year, I expect it's reasonably up to date wrt modern language features. I haven't read it personally but it's frequently…

At a glance an iPhone seems like one of the worst general purpose computing device for the global poor so in this case it's maybe not that big of a deal.

The blog author is a contributor to cats-effect, if you want to have a look at complicated and adhoc abstractions, look no further. One person's AbstractSingletonFactory is another…

I'm pretty sure Quarkus tries to stick as close as possible to Java EE APIs with some limitations to accommodate the lack of runtime reflection, being Red Hat's answer to applicati…

I have noticeable screen tearing on vertical monitors right now when scrolling and dragging windows on Fedora 36/Gnome 42/Xorg/nouveau. Glad to know this issue doesn't exist so I c…

The latest additions to the standard library generally follow that approach: java.time, java.nio etc. But of course the older API are still fully mutable OO. A new collections API,…

Which fedora version is this based on? It's supposed to be documented here https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/fedora-and-r... but it hasn't been updated yet.

Just had a look at your scala 3 extension, it's really nice. Does it support hot code reload like you would get in quarkus dev mode with java?

I found the server code of the Signal messenger to be very readable https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server

It's a GPL library, which is a copyleft license that actually predates the usage of the term "open source". Just because it's on npm/github doesn't mean you don't need to check the…
