Re:Faster hardware is a bad first solution to slow software on Saturday January 21, 2023 @05:36AM (#34465426)
Agree wholeheartedly. One thing that is hard to measure but very relevant is, the slower the system becomes, it actually costs much more of developers time. This is exactly the expensive thing you try to avoid at the first place. In my old place they run a Spring server on a super performant cloud but when run locally it takes more than 3mins to start up. No the hot swap does not always work. It sucks
nah, you're the lazy one
Re:It’s Been Real, Android: Why I’m Retiring from Android on Wednesday October 12, 2016 @09:11PM (#12697653)
i have to say, refusing/unable/lazy/ to learn is the most terrible thing ever happened to a developer. I'm always excited about new things even I have to learn them hard, even they start with poor quality, but I believe these are what make developers happy

I still don't understand why systemd sucks
Re:Swift versus Java: the bitset performance test on Thursday September 22, 2016 @03:00AM (#12555005)
I think it's a bit unfair to compare Swift with hotspot jdk. Try Android? (don't get me wrong I'm a big fan of Java, I just want to see the real world comparison)

Re:Moving from Docker to rkt on Tuesday September 06, 2016 @08:03AM (#12435305)
question: why do we use systemd to 'start' a docker container? isn't docker handling autostart/stop for you already?
