My Windows 11 laptop with 32 GB RAM only allows for about 10-12gb user addressable before starting to crash. I do keep a lot of Chrome tabs open so that can easily get to 6-8gb, pl…

They must be doing a very poor job of optimizing their marketing. I had a long history or ordering the same items using the same "deal", dozens of times a year. They removed that d…

Honest question, going back to Java, dont you miss scope functions (let, apply, also, etc)? Extension functions? Using sealed classes and "when"? I am happy to see Java (and the JV…
