They’re not experts.

Sensitive but uninformed. Expert is a common AI concept, going back for decades. It wasn’t invented with LLM.

That’s totally what they were talking about.

What do you mean, my prompts specifically ask for a phd level expert in every field?

\s

"Expertise" is a completely different beast from "knowledge".

Expecting to gain it from a model only through prompting is similar to expecting to become capable of something only because you bought a book on the topic.

This was sarcasm, sorry if that wasn’t clear.

They’re all Oracle’s version. OpenJdk is Oracle’s implementation of the JLS. They’re just not using Oracle’s build of OpenJdk.

Almost all.

Embedded folks with real time offerings like PTC, Aicas, microEJ,.... have their own implementations, with real time support, bare metal deployments.

Folks like IBM and Azul nowadays take parts of OpenJDK, mostly standard library, and add their own runtimes instead.

Lots of green field apps are Java based too. I just started a new codebase in Java 25.

HotSpot also has lots of things to speed up start time. Project Leyden has made a lot of advancements. AOTCache and crac etc.

That whole “feature” is vile.

How so? Good bit of my global claude.md is dedicated to fighting the incessant attribution in git commits. It is on the same level as the "sent from my iphone" signature - I'm not okay with my commits being advertising board for anthropic.

Entity framework is pretty good.

AFAIK maven doesn’t support post install logic like npm does. You have to explicitly optin with build plugins. It doesn’t let any arbitrary dependency run code on your machine.

some post processors have chains to execution (ex: lombok)

You explicitly opt in by using a compiler plugin. Merely having it as a dependency, like in npm, doesn’t mean it can run code at build time.

Of course that’s the play. It’s always the play and it’s so sad to see everyone on this forum falling for it.

You feel good that you got to contribute to these parasitic capitalists?

The future of open source will be to never publish tests because of things like this.
