Obvious question has an obvious answer: America isn't ready to vote for a woman, much less a black woman.

I'm not that deep into Java, but I was under the impression that things like Quarkus were starting to replace Spring in enterprise use...

We have a medium sized Quarkus app (~200kLOC) and Quarkus has been fantastic. Startup in JVM mode for our app is around 10 secs. Not blazing fast - but likely much faster than a typical Java enterprise app. I'm sure a few of those secs are spent doing things like pulling authz policies from github or due to having several thousand hibernate entities.

It will take some time for Quarkus to become a significant enough presence in the market share. In my experience, for the majority of Java shops Spring Boot does just fine because it worked before and it will probably work in the future.

Quarkus, Micronaut etc. are doing well. But Spring Boot is the giant of Java ecosystem.

But cars will be 50% of their current cost, once all those useless managers and c-suite folks are replaced by ai. Right? Right??

If you have a spare usb stick, the cost to trying them is only the download time. Each is capable of the same things, the differences are purely aesthetic. So try them out and see which you like best. Or install all three and switch each time you login.

You actually don't know the true cost until you learn the quirks of the UI, how it handles proprietary drivers, upgrades, the packaging system, how up-to-date and complete its packages are, etc.

Yes that is correct. Or if you're a player on a team, you could just... tank a game.

Is it still piracy if there's no other way to obtain it? Who are you pirating from? The past?

Is there any way to see the whole conversion, and not one specific reply in the middle of it?

I suppose the data just ended up in their hands at no fault of their own, through complete random happenstance, unrelated to their previous employment with DOGE?

And when you put that virtual girlfriend's brain into a sex bot, is it rape?

And all the survivors die from radiation? This must be a joke

Theres 8 billion people. Some will survive statistically. Not many but some.
