When your job title slightly understates your actual role
I don't know how you would get more specific.

What's the best movie you've seen this month?
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I just shared it with my kids. But we're godly seeing across the spiderverse tonight, so that might change.

Yes, we were down for ~2 hours :(
I suspect almost everyone here understands how this happens and feels more sympathy than anything. We've been there, and with higher stakes. Thanks for taking the time to administer this instance.

What is your opinion on deradicalization/deNazication programs?
Reply in thread
That's the question, though, isn't it?
nazis would obviously be against them, but how else are they bad?
This is the first I've heard of them, but if they end up serving more as nazi networking than nazi deradicalization I would be against them.

Wait, for real? I was feeling guilty for rooting for the orcas, but maybe not.

Which Version of JDK Should I Use?
I use temurin, but you're really okay with anything but oracle's jdk. You want to do what you can to avoid an Oracle audit.

The Code Report: Java is mounting a huge comeback

Java 11 allows you to paste in JavaScript and it largely just works
Var is not Javascript. It's not even type inference. It just reduces redundancy in the boilerplate.
The module changes are a PITA, but not increasingly difficult. There aren't really other big backwards incompatible changes
The actual backend improvements keep being pushed
What changes are you referring to?

What are some things in the class library you wish more people knew about or used?
Optional! I was reluctant at first because of the nullibility, but it's so useful.
I'm not sure this is what you were going for. I think most people know about optional and are skeptical because it's not a fix for nullability.

Okay but would this work? It looks good to me, but idk.

Two week (well 17 days) update!
I think it's likely to spike again when the api goes dark. I haven't been back there, is any consensus forming regarding whether people will use /r/rust, ![email protected], or ![email protected] going forward?

Do your routine backend code releases require downtime?
Reply in thread
if you're allowed to take downtime, you can do it all in one step without worrying about mixed-version environments.
You don't need to wiry about mixed version environments but you need to worry about whether you can roll back your changes without loss of data. It's not as hard but it seems to get overlooked if there haven't been any bad deployments lately.

I like programming.dev and what's happening on my "local" instance, but once i check of what's happening in the wild (other instances) I am reluctant to recommend lemmy to others.
What communities/instances are you dominating your /c/all? Asking because I was hoping for more leftist discussion and I'm not really seeing it outside of lemmygrad.
Edit: I'm mostly following programming.dev and lemmyrs.org, so I'm not really looking too hard. And I appreciate beehaw, but it feels more center left than left.

I think complete extinction is pretty unlikely, I expect that small enclaves will continue to exist. And if there are still humans in 100 years there will still be humans in 10,000 years.

The Code Report: Java is mounting a huge comeback
Can't watch the video right now but it makes a ton of sense that java would be having a resurgence. Pre-java 8 it felt like the every day I ran into problems it would be easier to solve in other languages. I'm still mostly on 8 and it feels pretty modern still. I'm super excited to move to 17 and 21 for all the new features, though.

What are your thoughts on Beehaw defederating?
Beehaw has existed for over a year. I'm not sure they'll need to rebuild. This isn't a company that requires constant growth, it's a community. I like the idea of beehaw, and hope that they decide to refederate with the other instances, but I think they'll survive and maybe even thrive without doing so.
That said I'm glad I've got an account that's on none of those three instances
