Last time I checked the clock, it was 11:00am and right now I have no idea because I’m in the flow state.

A while back my machine was so messed up that I could barely ssh onto it. 3,200% CPU utilization - all 32 cores on the host were fully utilized!

I hear the misconception that a server can only accept 65K connections or a server consumes a port for each accepted connection all the time.

For the last couple of months I’ve been working on a Java code navigator that fits into your browser.

The sirens were place a couple years ago when I received a bug report claiming that I caused 100% CPU util on a VM when it should have been idle.

Today I learned that Javascript does not need a StringBuilder for accumulating a large number of concatinations.

My $15 Logitech M100 mouse has served me well for at least two years.

What I Learned: Locking a readlock, then locking the write lock on the same lock creates a deadlock.

Instead of throwing away something, you should try to fix it, because the root cause might be simple to fix.

Suppose you wanted to unit test java.util.Map.
