Yes. Am not robot.

This Luxon, Seymour, Peters timeline is not one of the good timelines.
I had the ZX80. It was terrible.
Well yeah. How can I appreciate being rich if there aren’t poor people to compare myself with / lord over
…is something I’m not rich enough to say. Sigh.
Rainbow Warrior means something quite different in NZ.
I wonder how it’ll do on cost… and regulatory progress in other countries.
Will be watching with interest.

“eliminate”… They’re really making full use of dropping the “don’t be evil” clause aren’t they.
I have been sparing the almighty hell out of mine. When they drop it will be epic.
We must change them!
Require them to symbolically emote at least once per post/comment.

Oops. Just imagine the karma I would have lost, were I still on Reddit…
Most people are still using Java 8 (including android)…
Surveys don’t seem to back this up any more… Yes there’s a lot of Java 8 code. But more and more of it is maintenance rather than new development. Respondents of surveys that are able to list the versions they use in production (vs ‘pick one’) have indicated that for many teams with exposure to Java 8, they also have newer versions in production - showing that Java 8 is increasingly about maintenance than ongoing development (with the blocks to moving forward being a mix economic and technical factors).
The most dominant frameworks in the industry are ending their support for Java 8 - so not too far down the track, staying on Java 8 will mean that while you can pay for platform support, framework support is going to disappear anyway.
…we are currently at ~java 20.
Yes Java 20 is the current release, with Oracle’s LTS being Java 17 (the previous ones being 17, 11 and 8 - with 8 having the largest paid support window).
Java 21 is out in a couple of weeks and will become the new Oracle LTS (other vendors and frameworks tend to align on this LTS designation so it continues to be important).
And if I recall, the results were that squatting is actually better at lining up all of the anatomy for least effort in evacuation. As a result there was a suggestion of a lower incidence of haemorrhoids.
Had I not been to the US this would have made little sense to me. US toilets and ours (NZ) are very different (the scrotal sag would have to be pretty epic to reach the water here).
Dutch toilets with their poo-presentation shelf are different too. And then there’s squat toilets.
So many ways to excrete, so little time…
Actually New Zealand has quite a few islands and more than three that are inhabited, but the three that most people refer to are North Island, South Island and Stewart Island (even though there are larger populations on others). The fourth most likely inhabited island to be mentioned is Waiheke Island (and the third most populated).
In that case let’s really blow your mind…
A Kiwi is a bird or a person, not a fruit.
… Also New Zealand is comprised of three major islands North Island, South Island and West Island… Also some of my facts may be slightly inaccurate - but not the bit about the fruit.
Two! Two bats!
(The actual bats don’t look anything like these bats. This is just a tribute)
I missed the other ones… Must’ve been hiding behind the first one…
Sheepdog trials. Though mostly it’s about making things go through the gates.
