What is the base of the cutter made out of? Does the water jet defuse before hitting the base?

They are off investing time/money in bleeding edge tech, yet they won't innovate or improve the community/commenting system.

Discussion can be huge for engagement, and they have the reach and audience to set a new high watermark in this area.

Instead, you still can't even comment on most articles.

If anyone from NYT reads here I'd love to share some ideas.

It's the next generation community platform that the Times is working on right now.

Finally, an instance made for Java!

A small word of caution: I'd strongly recommend against using a huge java heap size. Java GC is stop the world, and a huge java heap size can lead to hour long gc sessions. It's much better to store data in a memory mapped file that is off heap, and access accordingly. Still very fast.
