  • Bad.

    There is no amount we could spend on defence that would stop the US. Any annexation would would be immediately over and instead be fought as a long expensive civil resistance at best. I think we spend enough on defence to know, cry about it, and help out around the world.

    Instead of spending our money on making Canada a better place to live we are going to give it to a few corporations that make weapons, we’ll probably sell them to israel to kill kids with.

    Like there’s just so many better places to spend this: housing, hospitals, infrastructure, transport, environmental projects.





  • I had to containerize an older java app. It sucked, java would take all the memory you gave it regardless, so it was hard to determine memory requirements/limits. It had pretty slow start although this wasn’t an issue for us, logging formatting was a pain. All this was overcome (not by upgrading), it was just a pain.

    I suspect this isn’t true of modern java though - I’d suspect with the hype kubernetes went through a few years ago that it’s just fine now a days.


  • IMO it doesn’t matter, learning go from Java should not be what excludes you from an offer. Of course if the employer has a choice between two otherwise even candidates then maybe it’d help.

    I think the problem is working with both in a production environment is what is going to set you apart.

    I’d say learn a language that’s really different like a functional or a logic language.

    Otoh I’ve not been interviewing lately so maybe my take is totally off base
