I Love asking question, i love solving mathematical, science based and programming challenges, i love learning about new things and lastly i love investing.
Mbappe Posted his Fifa World Cup Bronze Ball and Golden Boot got me thinking, so Fifa hands out Silver Ball and and Bronze Ball for the 2nd Best Player and 3rd Best Player of the tournament and also Silver Boots and Bronze Boots for the 2nd and 3rd highest goal scorers in the world Cup.
So that means, Lionel Messi would have Probably won a Silver Boot/Shoe in 2022 for being the 2nd highest goal scorer and also Silver Ball and Silver Boot for being the 2nd Best Player and 2nd highest goal scorer of the 2026 Fifa World Cup, so that means Lionel Messi has won:
2 Fifa World Cup Golden Balls (2014 & 2022)
1 Fifa World Cup Silver Ball (2026)
2 Fifa World Cup Silver Boots/Shoe (2022 & 2026)
And guess what, i have never seen Lionel Messi talk about it or even post it on his page, maybe they are many more awards this man might have won and we didn't even know about it.
After years of Project Valhalla work, value objects are coming to JDK 28 as a preview feature.
JEP 401 introduces objects without identity. For value objects, == compares their values instead of object identity. Two separately created ValuePoint instances with the same fields are indistinguishable, while regular objects still keep identity-based comparison. First preview.
PostgreSQL 19 just got much faster!
It introduces performance improvements across the entire database engine:
→ Up to 2× faster INSERTs with foreign key checks
→ Faster sorting with radix sort
→ Dynamic I/O workers that scale with demand
→ Faster parallel sequential scans
→ Parallel autovacuum
→ Better anti-joins and incremental sorts
→ Eager aggregation that processes fewer rows
→ Faster GIN and hash index cleanup
Fast Postgres → @postgresrun
No single feature makes every PostgreSQL workload dramatically faster.
