Your critique of Bernie's behaviour is correct, but Bernie's diagnosis of the failure of the Democrat party is also correct. Use the "worst guy" emoji if you need to.

Ah, but he lost in the right way: campaigning nationally instead of the state he was running in, and thereby raising record amounts of campaign funds to pay into the pockets of DNC-associated consulting firms.

You joke, but modern Java is much less bad than it used to be, the JVM is very well optimized, and other JVM languages like Kotlin and Clojure are actually good.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. For application code, it's almost always better to use a language with garbage collection, in order to get memory safety without undue ceremony. Yes, some gc-ed languages are slow (Python, Ruby), but others are quite fast (JVM, .NET, Common Lisp, Haskell).

This is like 1950s level anticommunism. Even when I was an anarchist I would have been very embarassed to be associated with this.

I used to rely on archive links, but lately all I'm getting is endless cloudflare captchas. Did they get lawfared or something?
