In of themselves, the points are not important. Just size the stories to some amount of points that is reasonable and then do a sprint. The objective is to get a sense of how much work can be done in a sprint, to help create forecasts of when work will be completed.

Is Java Still Keeping Up with Modern Programming Languages in c/[email protected]

At this point, it's the JVM that is the real value, not the language itself. It would be better if they started to emphasize that more.

MSYS2 has support for GTK, since I think the windows installer for git (which uses MSYS2) would include GUI tools built with GTK

HN flags post of Irish tech personality being punished for speaking for Gaza (news.ycombinator.com)

HN lore: a news submission that gets flagged is removed from the listing of posts on HN and basically hidden.

It's interesting because there are a bunch of comments basically agreeing with the statements re Palestine and against a genocide, and of course that means it gets flagged.

Bonus: casual Irish racism - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37976176

Given Irish history, and this person's Irish origin, I can understand how, in an unguarded and possibly reflexive moment, he could see this as merely support for a smaller, inferior, insurgent force against a larger, militarily superior occupying force, as this can be argued to loosely parallel Irish 20C history involving Britain.

At the same time, I'm surprised because this person organized a cosmopolitan gathering, and it seems likely that he would have adopted a more cosmopolitan and sensitive attitude.

I suppose the old adage is true, "The tree may leave the forest, but its roots are still in the soil."

That's a real bummer because lots of my clothes are synthetic fabrics and I really like them compared to cotton. Sigh.

That was always the thing I was wondering about. Where was the origin of these microplastics. Surely it wasn't all just those little beads that were in soap and shampoo
