Re:Help me sort out the meaning of “{}” as a constructor arg... by twic on Tuesday November 22, 2016 @06:34PM (#13018631)
It's URL::equals that hits the network, not URI::equals; the latter is a lot more sane. And even URL::equals often won't hit the network, because Java caches DNS lookups forever.

I realise that i am not exactly disproving your point about cruft here.

Ha, I couldn't remember if it was URI or URL and I was too lazy to look. :-/
