Best @lukhash album yet in my opinion but you should buy the discography to be sure 😉

Intel's 386 processor (1985) moved the x86 architecture to 32 bits, but it needed to be backward compatible with earlier 16 and 8-bit processors. As a result, it needed complicated circuitry for its internal registers: six different circuits for 30 registers. Let's look at the silicon circuits. 1/N

Dearest Fediverse people, you kind, smart, lovely bastards. I have sod all money for the next 2 weeks. I won't perish, I'll be fine, but if you like music, and you sometimes buy music perhaps maybe - if you like my music, if you check it out, maybe consider buying it? There's two options, Faircamp or Bandcamp, you can pay whatever you like on Faircamp! (including stealing it, if you want!) https://negativevoid.art/limnetic/
Or my entire discography is listed at only €30 on Bandcamp.

@limneticvillains This is quality stuff. You do all your own recording and production? Top marks on the track naming too 👍

@gloom303 Ivory (@ivory) is well worth the price for a really smooth experience imo.

@catsalad well-timed!

One of the reasons I did this (https://johanvos.wordpress.com/2025/02/27/building-openjfx-using-jdk/) is to make it easier to create JavaFX SDKs for embedded systems. That is, Java SDKs including JavaFX. First class.
Stay tuned. #java #javafx

A new "JavaFX In Action" interview! @chriswhocodes has a long history in Java and #JavaFX development. He talks about two of his JavaFX projects: DemoFX and JITWatch. While the demos are already impressive, Chris also gives a "crash course" in this video about Java and Byte code and how the Just-In-Time compiler converts these to native code in the Java Virtual Machine.

How I built an AI company to save my open source project

On this day, 3 years ago, my world fell apart. It was a Thursday. I just finished my second meeting that morning, looked at my inbox and realized it was over. My life’s work was over.

@lunarood JIT-compiler-understanderer here! Making tools to help Java devs grok what happened at runtime 👋

Prompts already won.

There's a middle ground between CLIs and GUIs, and it's *better*. So I wrote a post about what that might look like, if someone were to spend a lot of time digging in it.

Thank you so much to @sarajw, @ross, and @katachora for reviewing this post, offering many excellent suggestions.

@ndw I'm sorry to hear that Norm.

blkid should help you identify what crypto setup was used.

I would think a modern CUDA GPU would find a short password for you in reasonable time.

Kind regards.

Vladimir Dvorak has created a fascinating deep dive into the startup times of JetBrains' IntelliJ IDEA.

https://blog.jetbrains.com/platform/2025/01/jitwatch4i-analyzing-intellij-idea-s-startup/

In doing so he created a modified version of JITWatch called JITWatch4i which addresses several shortcomings in the tool.

What if... we could build a JDK including JavaFX, using the jdk build system?
As a POC, I added 3 javafx modules to my fork of openjdk/jdk and built them on Linux.
The openjdk/jdk build system is excellent, and it required only minimal changes to do this.
See https://github.com/johanvos/jdk/tree/openjfx
