SDE @ Netflix. Opinions are my own although I don't share many. I mostly browse.

@AirIndiaX @RamMNK - can you please look into this. My family with my 3 year old son is stranded and @AirIndiaX is refusing support.

[Swaranga @swaranga]

@AirIndiaX - My wife and son are stranded at Jodhpur after you cancelled their flight. Next flight is 24h+ away. Ground staff is refusing compensation despite your policy. Please assist and also ensure they aren't left outside the airport!

[Swaranga @swaranga]

@AirIndiaX @AirIndiaX now your crew is running inside the airport and my family is being refused entry to the airport and made to stand outside. What is going on?

Flight number IX-1980

@ranman Let me offer a deep cut from my time. DEV.PTHREAD

I’m gonna give 10 random people that repost this and follow me $25,000 for fun (the $250,000 my X video made)

I’ll pick the winners in 72 hours

@medriscoll @lukaseder @duckdb @hamiltonulmer Even for select statements I wouldn’t want the tool to execute it without me explicitly opting for it. Imagine trying to find a single row but accidentally triggering a massive table scan in a live production database because the query filters were not yet complete.

@BrianGoetz @volker_simonis Why? Do people keep asking for new revisions every year? 😆

@rakyll AWS Kinesis?

@BrianGoetz @rrmadhav Every year I hope there is a different answer. 😂

@MarcJBrooker It would be nice if we could switch from FIFO to LIFO at runtime. For instance, in SQS, if we could make a call and switch the delivery order without any change to the consumer code. Would be great during an operational event towards faster partial recovery.

@BrianGoetz @tagir_valeev I have no background in language design and I am sure this has been considered and rejected. But I cannot resist asking: you stopped short of field declarations but what about the void for methods that do not return values and () for parameterless methods?
main {
println("");
}

@Kyle_MacLachlan @universoLynch It was Diane.

@gunnarmorling Previously with platform threads being heavyweight, it’s number was used as a proxy to control the concurrency of downstream calls. Now with that bottleneck removed, we should be using semaphores to limit the concurrency and make it more explicit.

@_joemag_ One area where it is unavoidable is feature launches tied to marketing announcements. You have to enable the feature across regions at a given date and time and following the normal deployment calendar with all the safety practices and timed baking would not be feasible.

@houlihan_rick What is the benefit of the single table design anyway? The table becomes harder to query manually from the console, looking at the metrics it is harder to say which use-case is using what capacity; why do it when extra tables have no fixed charges.

[Swaranga @swaranga]

@javinpaul Even nicer: Arrays.sort(testStrings, comparingInt(String::length))

@lukaseder How I miss this feature in IntelliJ. That parsing, build and run test cycle is almost unbearable for new Eclipse to IntelliJ users.

@Grundlefleck @lukaseder If a, b, c contains at least two trues or two falses, this will throw an IllegalArg exception.
