    Author: Cristobal Escobar Original post on Foojay: Read More BoxLang 1.15.0 is a high-impact release with two big headlines and a long tail of hardening.

    Temporal Is to Your Code What a Database Is to Your Data

    Author: Geertjan Wielenga Original post on Foojay: Read More Once upon a time, applications managed their own data files.

    Author: Geertjan Wielenga Original post on Foojay: Read More When developers first hear about Temporal, they tend to move through a predictable sequence of emotions. First comes disbelief — the claim that your application can crash mid-execution and simply pick up where it left off, variables intact, sounds like nonsense.

    Nulling Out References Won’t Help Your Garbage Collector

    Author: Kirk Pepperdine Original post on Foojay: Read More One of the misconceptions that I continuously run into is that nulling out references in Java helps garbage collection. This attitude is particularly prevalent from those developers used to C/C++ where delete ptr becomes ref = null. To be fair, it’s a reasonable thing to believe. It’s also wrong, and the …
