It will only help the earliest of beginners. If java 1.1 included this i would understand, but at this point I don’t see it

They all require the template processor to be specified, but I’m likely to convert hundreds or thousands of lines of existing string concatenation to templates in one of my projects and I really appreciate that the only \{ that show up will be the ones I create.

Wow that looks really nice. Going into it I was expecting it to be a crappy procedural language, but it looks like a really nice alternative to SQL

I don’t know how you would get more specific.

if you’re allowed to take downtime, you can do it all in one step without worrying about mixed-version environments.

You don’t need to wiry about mixed version environments but you need to worry about whether you can roll back your changes without loss of data. It’s not as hard but it seems to get overlooked if there haven’t been any bad deployments lately.

I do not. I’ve got apps that go unused 5pm-9am or 1am-9am depending on the night, apps that have lower usage 5pm-8am and one app that’s basically unused 8am-5pm. Each one gets redeployed in its down time, with hours extra to rollback any problems.

Actual downtime is usually around twenty seconds which is fine except for emergency midday builds.

I’ve been trying to get zero downtime deployments, but it’s hard to justify the extra complexity when we’ve got such open service windows. Also, we’re likely to have more downtime from an ISP service outage than our midday builds.

Other teams have much shorter service windows but deployments that take the whole window.

Wait, for real? I was feeling guilty for rooting for the orcas, but maybe not.

Lol. I get it now. Thanks

I think I was unclear. I agree that having replaceable batteries is exciting. Ben sarcastically called Apple coming up with a way to circumvent the law exciting. And I agreed, also sarcastically.

“Exciting”

Thanks, that worked
