I'm curious about this as well. I use Java quite a bit and I feel like my results are excellent, but colleagues who use other languages are less impressed. I wonder if this is beca…

I can't be bothered to read a website that is so clearly AI generated with little to no polishing. What does that say about the rest of the project?

It's understood that LLMs have limitations and people are working on "the next thing" to try and make it to real AGI, e.g. Yann LeCun.

To me, the idea is that you have something in your head and you want to "project" it into reality. I suppose the difference between makers and producers then is that makers happen …

Yes - the JdbcClient API has a similar feel for sure. If you are using Spring, it is a better choice than Pyranid because it integrates well with the Spring txn plumbing. Outside o…

If you use Java and like to write SQL, check out https://pyranid.com I stopped using ORMs around 2008 because they made the easy problems easier and the hard problems harder. I wan…

There is no public-facing continuations API afaik. Structure concurrency/virtual threads seem like a good fit for Swing; just have your event handler fire off virtual thread[s] and…

Show HN: Soklet, a zero-dependency Java HTTP/1.1 and SSE virtual-threaded server
Hi, I built the first version of Soklet back in 2015 as a way to move away from what I saw as the complexity and "magic" of Spring (it had become the J2EE creature it sought to rep…

I like the fluent API - this looks like a much better way to work with ResourceBundle types than Java's out-of-the-box support. Thanks for sharing.

My project, Lokalized (from 2017, in Java), has the same goal but took a different approach to the "little language" design. I'm guessing I had the same inspiration as the Fluent a…

Maybe, but the last straw for me on that platform was preventing tweets from linking to arbitrary, non-doxxing Mastodon profiles (try it and see). I tested it to confirm and deacti…
