If Java is fast, why are Gradle and Spring slow?

You people who think this is a great thing really need to put more thought into what you propose as the migration to your better future, because what it looks like to everyone else is that you’d really love them not to able to afford heat, rent, and groceries

I’m sure a lot of people seeking an ADHD / Autism diagnosis after “discovering” they “totally have it” after seeing a video on social media do not in fact have ADHD / Autism.

There is no way I would have been able to identify this as sarcasm on this board without the sarc mark, so thanks for that, I was getting upset

binary132 — Sat, 03 Oct 2026 16:46:02 +0000

I don’t really think aesthetic details can create soul where there is no soul. Somehow I can’t imagine a world where games cost millions of dollars to produce yet also have soul mechanically injected by following some art director’s design-language protocol.

Wow. That brought tears to my eyes. What a wonderful and upstanding woman. So many people — both men and women — would jump at the opportunity to play the victim card and amplify their private resentments against their spouse to glorify themselves when they got the spotlight like that. Instead she displayed immense character and honor in defending her husband. All of us should take a lesson from her example.

One thing I kinda like about the slop era is that it’s not so hard to clone apps like this to run entirely on local LLMs

The real question should be why anyone would voluntarily continue to spend money on a software service that costs as much as an expensive computer when they could just buy an (upgradeable) expensive computer and use it as much as they want, approximately forever.

Imagine owning nothing and being happy.
