    Not sure why they didn't include the BigDecimal conversion directly on the JsonNumber object instead of going through the String representation. Duplicate keys are a parse exceptio…

    It's not the cloning that gets you. It's the inevitable step of running whatever you cloned to "run the tests" or "see how it works".

    How is this a failure mode? Sounds like a good idea to me to let the members decide who they want in the club. Just wish this could also be done for national borders.

    It does not follow from the article. You're just complaining about a different annoying thing that uses the same screen on some cars. A lot of controls are quite far away from simp…

    Offset / page index is not exactly stable especially for the most common case of newest-first.
