Is Java 21 more like the old .NET Framework (i.e like .NET Framework 4.8) or the new .NET (i.e. like NET 7)?

In the old .NET Framework you...

No, they couldn't adopt x64 because it is a proprietary architecture owned by Intel and AMD.
They could adopt ARM because it possible to license...

RISC-V was backed by large universities since day one such as University of California, and since day one had one had prominent and famous designers,...

Yeah, Loongson probably isn't bad, and probably will be good, but its their own thing while RISC-V is internationally backed by many of the largest companies...

[uid313]

But is the case open source hardware? Are there CAD files available?

[uid313]

Yeah, sure, I would be fine with Flatpak too. Either Flatpak or Snap, I don't care, as long as it is sandboxed. Canonical seems to be going for Snap ...

How stupid, they should just ditch Loongson and adopt RISC-V instead.

[uid313]

I don't care much for an immutable OS but would love to see the PDF reader, email client and media player packaged as Snap and sandboxed.

I don't think any websites that use the "PLEASE SIGN UP" popovers will use this new popover API. I think this popover API will be more used...

PostgreSQL doesn't support RISC-V. 😥️

What do you like about PostgreSQL? What is your favorite thing about PostgreSQL? What makes PostgreSQL...

My wishes for Python:

• Ditch the vanity Python license and adopt something like the MIT License or the 2-clause BSD License so it can easily legally

Interesting, but it looks like Tenstorrent is a company that does AI accelerators, so this cool new RISC-V CPU they got it is for AI acceleration in data...

This is a great idea, I hope Intel pursues it!
A good idea to modernize the legacy x86 architecture and get rid of old legacy cruft and make it...

I am using ASP.NET Core, not to be confused with the old ASP.NET.
The old ASP.NET was for the .NET Framework (like 4.8).
The new ASP.NET Core...

Python is alright too, but I think it is not as easy to type hint as PHP, in Python you have dict/mapping, list/sequence/iterable. Static fields can be...

I don't think there is much interest in a superset of PHP.
I think it would be better to improve the current PHP language such as by adding support...

But does it have Windows 11 style, and does it have Adwaita style?

Was Itanium a technically retarded architecture, or was it ahead of its time, or was it just poor project management, bad rollout, stupid marketing, and...

Really nice that it includes a changelog!

I just wish Asus, MSI and Gigabyte would add support form fwupd for their motherboards.

[uid313]

Cool!

Now where is RISC-V support?

Imagine if Intel would make a ARM or RISC-V based CPU with Intel Xe graphics.
