Regarding Java I'm pretty sure that benchmark is broken at least a little bit and testing something else as not specifying initial size for ArrayList means list of size 10 which gets resized all the time when `add()` is called, leading to big amount of unused objects needing garbage collection.

The most surprising for me was reading that VIA is still creating x86 processors. The last time I've heard it was C3. Or maybe they are used by China just as x86 license holders?

I've seen/fixed similar issue in someone else's Windows 10 notebook few days ago. It seems to have been caused by wifi having the same ssid for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz and not-that-great signal so OS was for some reason "constantly" switching between those two. After forcing it to use just 5 GHz it went from 1 Mbps to 100 Mbps. Reading this sooner would have prevented my headache.

I know that not everybody has time, money, opportunity, etc. to go to Del Prado to see art with their own eyes but I have to say that seeing photos on my monitor before and seeing it in reality were completely different and not not transferable experiences. The light, those details and often even size of the canvas which is measured in meters and not centimeters are all incredible. For example Las Meninas is basically 3x3 meters or you can easily spend 1 hour looking at The Garden of Earthly Delights by Bosch. I will remember this visit till the end of my life.
Is there a live demo I can see? Thanks!

It's the first line in the readme file.

"The Czechoslovak capitulation precipitated an outburst of national indignation. In demonstrations and rallies, Czechs and Slovaks called for a strong military government to defend the integrity of the state. A new cabinet, under General Jan Syrový, was installed, and on 23 September 1938, a decree of general mobilization was issued. The Czechoslovak Army was modern, had an excellent system of frontier fortifications and was prepared to fight. The Soviet Union announced its willingness to come to Czechoslovakia's assistance. Beneš, however, refused to go to war without the support of the Western powers."
There's no citation for this in Wiki and Soviet Union and Germany signed Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact not that long after. So this quote (and Soviet Union/Russia in general as it's obvious why they would "help") is really not trustworthy and not based on evidence.

You're whitewashing at least the WWII era. The Czecho-Slovak government capitulated pretty quickly after Germany's demands, ..., and the country was used to support Germany's was efforts. TBH, they did not receive a whole lot of support from their prior allies, to say the least, ahead of the capitulation.

As an aside, hopefully the relative lack of support for Ukraine does not have similar outcomes. There are some significant similarities between the two.
That's no whitewashing. Not sure where you got this idea from but if you read the link to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_Agreement you'd realize that what you wrote is completely incorrect and almost a lie. Czechia was not invited to that meeting and European superpowers decided that it should cede to Germany. Plus Germany invaded Czechia in 1939. Czechs would go to war and lost it in days (just look at the size and position) and would be a pariah in Europe if they didn't listen.
We met on Tinder, both with "joke" profiles and neither of us seriously "playing the game". We ended up meeting and hitting it off. That was a decade ago and through COVID and everything else there is no one else I would rather work from home with and spend my whole day with.
+2 for Tinder. Not me, I've met my wife through a mutual friend who knew both of us are single but 2 of my very good friends met their future wives there. Another terminally online friend met a girl on Discord in a game server. Started chatting, met in real life and the rest is history. Rest of my friends met offline: same hobby/friends/asking out in a bar/colleague/neighbor/etc.
> They stopped compiling regexps on the fly and moved the regexps to package variables. (I actually don't know if this was a significant win; there might just be the three big wins.)
Anecdotally, this could be a huge win, depending on how often it's called.
A guy I was working with, new to Go, was writing a router config parser and asked why it was so slow.
The first thing I did was moved regexp.Compile from a hot path into a broader scope. It went from something like 40 seconds down to 2 on my machine.
Spring (boot) works exactly the same. We once found that 30% of CPU time is spent parsing path regexes in Controllers somewhere deep inside the Spring. We had rewritten 1500 endpoints to hardcoded paths and it fixed CPU usage.
