β€œJava is the new Python” sounds wrong until you remove the ceremony.

JBang + Java 21 finally give Java a scripting workflow without giving up types, concurrency, or performance.

This isn’t a language war. It’s a tooling wake-up call.

How many people use this project? or want to? Β· confluentinc parallel-consumer Β· Discussion #849 Hello, ghost from Christmas past here ;) The project lost all its GitHub stars a while ago, and I wanted to gauge interest level in this project at this point. Please upvote which comment represent...

Not disagreeing, it's a sound concept and it works well. That said, it seems that the project is a bit dormant: github.com/confluentinc...

Serverside programmer here, xml/xslt still great to have in the toolbox.

xml/xslt (especially 2 or 3) are massively underrated IMO.

BREAKING:

The White House lashed out at the creators of this ad for "fear-mongering".

It must have really struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists.
