There's a Java version higher than 8?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 12 hours ago

One of my university professors wanted us to program using DrJava, so of course Java 8 it is.

Why did he want to use that? Because it was similar DrRacket, which he made us use in the previous term to program Scheme (which is just lisp for teachers). Of course that was just us being all modern and such, he himself used DrScheme, the deprecated precursor of DrRacket.

This guy is so old that my high school Systems teacher had him as her university professor.

He has a fancy current gen MacBook Pro that he uses for his stuff. Then when it's lesson time he whips out a windows 95 netbook and a daisy chain of adapters from VGA to thunderbolt.

Yeah in the final update of corporate "foundational security improvements", which was discussed in 2015.

Rumor has it that people aren't even allowed to put their passwords on sticky notes anymore as well!
