As I had written in my previous blog, I don’t believe a true AI can be a computer program. The question that arises is why not? And if not, what can it be? As I have said, I find that computers are just that, a system that does mathematical computations and nothing more. While we claim that our computers are ...

Some time ago I blogged about language features in TypeScript and Dart which I miss in Java. In this blog post, due to my new expertise in Kotlin, I would like to consider Kotlin too. Every programming language has a main focus where it is used. Java is primarily used in backend, Kotlin in backend + frontend (Android) and Dart, ...

In low-latency applications, the creation of unnecessary objects is often avoided by reusing mutable objects to reduce memory pressure and thus the load on the garbage collector. This makes the application run much more deterministically and with much less jitter. However, care must be taken as to how these reused objects are used or else unexpected results might manifest themselves, ...

Queues are often fundamental components in software design patterns. But, what if there are millions of messages received every second and multi-process consumers need to be able to read the complete ledger of all messages? Java can only hold so much information before the heap becomes a limiting factor with high-impacting garbage collections as a result, potentially preventing us from ...

I had an update from my very good friend and excellent consultant Stella Varvarigou in which she explained me that setting com.sun.jndi.rmi.object.trustURLCodebase and com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.object.trustURLCodebase to false does not fully mitigate the threat as it is possible to send the exploit code with the request.[2] Introduction Apache Log4j, the most popular logging system, has announced a zero-day exploit CVE-2021-44228 on December 9, 2021 that results ...

This post is part of a series where I do my best to organize my thoughts around Go: its paradigms and usability as a programming language. I write this as a Java programmer that respects the principles of Elegant Objects. Go 1.18 Beta 1 was just released. These are my initial impressions of the main feature to be delivered in this release: generics. ...
